Blepha EyeBag (formally MGD Rx The EyeBag)
Designed and made in the UK by an ophthalmologist to help with dry eye and blepharitis, it gently warms the eyelids and can be reheated 200 times.
The Blepha EyeBag (formally MGDRx® EyeBag®) is a patented, CE marked Class 1 medical device registered with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). It was devised by a UK ophthalmologist to help his dry eye patients.
The Blepha EyeBag is a silk and suedex device which can be re-heated up to 200 times in a microwave. Simply heat for 30 or 40 seconds on full power and the Blepha EyeBag will stay warm for up to 10 minutes.
