Our eyelids perform important functions for the health of our eyes. They form a mechanical protection that protects the eye from injuries and external influences. They also distribute the tear film evenly over the surface of the eye when you blink. The meibomian glands on the edge of the eyelid produce a fatty film that protects and stabilizes the tear film. One speaks of meibomian gland dysfunction (MDD) when production in the glands is disturbed and these are blocked. In most cases, dry eyes are due to MDD. Changes to the eyelids, for example due to skin diseases such as atopy or blepharitis or after surgery, can lead to a vicious circle of inflammation and dryness if left untreated.

LID EDGE CLEANING AS PART OF THE TREATMENT
An important part of the treatment when there is an inflammation of the eyelid (blepharitis) is cleaning the edges of the eyelids with warm, moist compresses and then massaging the edges of the eyelids. With suitable cleaning cloths, the drainage from the Meibomian glands should be improved by loosening and removing encrustations on the edges of the eyelids. Studies have shown that cleaning and caring for the lid margins leads to less clogged Meibomian glands, stabilization of the tear film and an increase in the lipid layer of the tear film.

ILASTWIPES CLEANING CLOTHS
ILASTWIPES are sterile, individually wrapped wipes for cleaning diseased or allergic eyelids. They are recommended for all types of eyelid inflammation and meibomian gland dysfunction. They are also suitable before or after surgical interventions on the eyelid, eye or in the eye area. With ILASTWIPES can be used to remove scales, secretions and crusts to counteract the spread of germs. With hyaluronic acid and allantoin, they reduce the moisture loss of the skin and support healing processes. In order not to irritate sensitive skin, the formulation is hypoallergenic. The wipes smell pleasantly neutral and are practical to use.

INSTRUCTIONS ON THE PROPER CLEANING OF THE EYELIDS
Before cleaning your eyelids, please wash your hands thoroughly so as not to irritate the sensitive mucous membranes. To nourish and moisturize the eyelids after cleaning, it is recommended to use a suitable eyelid cream, such as ILASTto use CARE.

Place moist, warm compresses, such as cotton pads, on your closed eyes for a few minutes. Clogged secretions in the meibomian glands are thus liquefied. This effect can be intensified with thermal glasses.

To express any secretions that are stuck in the glands on the lower eyelid, look up. Using a finger, massage the skin at the base of the lashes on the lower eyelid in a circular motion, applying light pressure but carefully.

For application on the upper eyelid, close the eye. Massage the skin at the base of the eyelashes in circular movements with gentle pressure of the index finger. You can also wipe out the liquid secretion from top to bottom with a damp cotton swab.

To clean the edges of the lids, use an ILAST cleaning tissue WIPES out of the packaging and wraps it around your index finger. With eyes closed, gently massage eyelid and lashes from inside to outside using circular motions.
