This can make your eyes feel uncomfortable, having a negative impact in your appearance and the quality of vision.<br \/>Up to 50% of the population suffers from some form of dry eyes, while 50% of dry eye patients also suffer from anterior blepharitis.<br \/>Blepharitis in many cases happens because of poor to non-existent eyelid\/eyelashes hygiene and the chronic growth of bacteria and Demodex mites on the skin of the eyelids, resulting in chronic inflammation and ocular symptoms associated with: blepharitis, dry eyes, meibomianitis, chalazions, eyelid-conjunctivitis, trichiasis and madarosis.

Because of the multifactorial pathological nature of blepharitis and dry eyes, the \n            ideal treatment should be multifaceted and long-term to be considered successful. First of all\n            the most powerful therapeutic approach to these conditions involves the decongestion of the \n            eyelids from the accumulated lipid oil, restoration of the smooth functioning of the lipid \n            glands and control of the inflammation existing in the eyelids.\n            These can be achieved by repeated 40C heating treatment combined with eyelid cleansing \n            with Naviblef, eyelid massage with Ophthalmogen Gel and spraying with Ophthalmogen \n            Spray. By restoring the function of the meibomian glands and releasing the blocked flow\n            of lipids from the eyelids to the ocular surface, the symptoms of blepharitis and dry eyes will\n            be drastically reduced and the improvement in the quality of life will be felt immediately.\n            Throughout the course of treatment frequent instillation of lubricating eye drops should take\n            place so that the eyes exogenously receive the hydration and protection they lack compared   \n            to the one healthy tears normally provide. \n            It is logical that with the substantial improvement of the symptomatology, for the treatment\n            to come to an end, but this is not recommended if there is a desire to maintain the good state \n            of eye health that has been achieved.

Health is heavily influenced by the past: heredity, past behaviors, past experiences, \n           past diseases. All these data provide clues for a patients present health condition.\n           Literally the past helps understand the present and develop strategies to solve current \n           problems and advance the cause of medicine.\n           When it comes to the eyes we have to think what has gone wrong till today and epidemiology \n           of ocular surface diseases is soaring sky high? At some point in the past, the use of heat as an \n           ophthalmic practice with warm compresses was very important in the treatment and calming  \n           of the eyes. At that era, life wasn\u2019t running at the high pace of today\u2019s living. As the pace of life\n           accelerated, the use of hot compresses ceased to exist both due to the lack of time and the \n           difficulty of providing the stable 40C therapeutic temperature for the 20\u2019 period that is proven \n           to be beneficial to the eyes. As a result of the accelerated daily life, can be the eyelids \n           pathology with the appearance inflammation of the eyelids &amp; eyelashes, dry eyes, \n           meibomian gland dysfunction, chalazions, madarosis etc.\n           Ophthalmogen 40C eyelid compresses have been designed according to modern daily life \n           needs and current scientific findings. Systemic thermal application treatment of common \n           ocular surface diseases will provide rapid and long-lasting relief, contributing to the reduction \n           of the high epidemiological
