Is Blephex Treatment Right for You?

You must see the eye doctor for regular eye care when you have blepharitis. Our ophthalmologist will look at your eyelids, diagnose and treat blepharitis. To get help, call Eye Care Specialists of Florida at our office in Kissimmee, FL, to schedule an appointment.

BlephEx Treatments

This treatment is completely painless. Our ophthalmologist can perform this treatment in the office to relieve your condition. BlephEx can reduce symptoms until the condition is more manageable.

When this treatment is used, it removes the toxins and extra bacteria living along the edges of the eyelids. These substances can cause inflammation and other symptoms. When this treatment is used, a handset is used to spin a medical-grade micro-sponge. It is spun along the edges of the eyelashes and eyelids to eliminate any built-up debris. This treatment lasts six to eight minutes and exfoliates the eyelids. After your treatment, you'll be informed on the best ways to care for the area at home.

Cleaning the Eyelids

Eyelids are a tough area to clean. Without proper cleaning, a lot of debris can build up. This debris can include dead skin, biofilm, debris, and bacteria. This area can get an overgrowth that creates symptoms of painful inflammation. Overgrowth can spread to damaged eyelids and tear glands. When BlephEx is used, thoroughly cleaning can eliminate many symptoms of this condition.

It's important to note that BlephEx treatment should only be performed by qualified eye care professionals. They will determine if the procedure is suitable for your specific condition and provide appropriate guidance and care throughout the process.

  • My experience with eye care specialist has been beyond exceptional. The staff is super friendly and they truly do care for their patients. I had a very dense cataract and the doctor made it a point to get it removed with just one surgery. I cannot express how much I admire this place and the staff believe me if you come here you too will be very happy. They take the time to evaluate and ensure that you are taken care of 100%. Thanks so much!!!
