Treatment We Offer: NuLids

NuLids is an in-office procedure performed quarterly which can help treat dry eye when combined with other at home treatments prescribed by your doctor. It is a soothing, efficient procedure using an instrument which gently massages the eyelids, helps to unclog oil glands (“Meibomian Gland Dysfunction” or “MGD”) and cleans the lid margins of any accumulated dandruff on the eyelashes (“Blepharitis”, including when caused by Demodex).
