Chronic Red and Irritated Eyes: With Cutting Edge Blepharitis Treatments
Do you suffer from chronic red eyes or irritation of the eyes? This can be caused by many different causes. We offer many treatments for blepharitis or redness of the eyelids which is often associated with red eyes and chronic irritated eyes. Cliradex and Cliradex Complete for blepharitis management.
Cliradex is made from the key constituent of Tea tree oil, 4-Terpineol . This makes the product less irritating than Tea Tree oil, or Melaleuca alternifolia, around the eye. i-Lid™ Cleanser which is now called Avenova is another product that can be helpful in treating blepharitis that we offer from Nova Bay. The key innovation behind the i-Lid Cleanser is the stabilized form of pure hypochlorous acid solution (with no bleach impurities, which are often present in Dakin and Dakin-like solutions). In in vitro laboratory studies, hypochlorous acid has shown to be fast-acting against bacteria, biofilm and toxins. Hypochlorous acid made by the body’s white blood cells breaks down quickly, but NovaBay was able to create a proprietary formulation in which hypochlorous acid is both stable and free from impurities.We also use microblepharoexfoliation therapy to help control eye redness. We also use diagnostic techniques to get at the reason why you have red and irritated eyes.
