The NuLids System is a highly effective once-a-day at-home treatment device specifically designed to reduce the signs and symptoms associated with blepharitis and dry eye. The NuLids System is easy-to-use and only takes one minute to complete for both eyes. The NuLids device is compact and cordless so that you can take it just about anywhere.

It is estimated that over 40 million Americans suffer from these two chronic conditions. Dry Eye disease is the number one medical reason for patient visits to ophthalmologists and optometrists.

The NuLids System treats Blepharitis and Dry Eye disease caused by Meibomian gland dysfunction. This condition often worsens over time. NuLids is clinically proven safe and effective for removal of biofilm and scurf that occlude the openings of the Meibomian glands. These glands are responsible for producing the lipid layer of the tear film. In studies, lipid deficiency is the cause of Dry Eye Disease in 86% of all cases. In addition, the gentle massaging action of the NuLids Daily Disposable Tip may stimulate capillary perfusion at the lid margins and contribute to overall better eyelid health

NuLids is an important part of your doctor’s treatment plan, but it is not a cure. Continuing with all therapies prescribed by your eye care professional will result in the best treatment outcome.

Patients typically notice a distinct improvement in comfort and a significant reduction in their dry eye symptoms often in the first month of use. When used as directed, many patients report a noticeable improvement in about 8-10 days.

Yes. When used every day, patients saw the quickest improvement in the signs and symptoms of their dry eye. And, when used every day, patients report substantial relief from both the signs and symptoms of dry eye.

Anywhere you have access to a mirror! Typically, patients make the NuLids procedure part of their morning or evening bathroom routine. For Dry Eye Disease sufferers who travel, the NuLids System takes up about the same space as your electric toothbrush.

Daily… DO NOT REUSE ANY NULIDS DAILY DISPOSABLE TIP after completing your daily treatment. The reuse of any NuLids Tip will greatly increase your risk of developing a serious eye infection. Bacteria, viruses, and fungi that are common on your eye lids are immediately transferred to the NuLids Tip during use. Unlike your eyelids, the NuLids Tip has no anti-infective properties. Therefore, bacteria, viruses, and fungi that are transferred to the NuLids Tip multiply at an accelerated rate compared to those that remain on your eyelids.

Never share your NuLids Tip with another person. If shared, bacteria from one patient will be easily transferred to the other user and can very easily lead to a serious eye infection.

Never use your NuLids System without first applying a drop of lubricant to the top of the NuLids Tip. Always follow your eye doctor’s instructions. Your doctor will ask you to use a quality ocular lubricant that is in gel form or a more viscous / thicker liquid or a gentle, non-exfoliating, non-oily cleaner designed for use near the eyes.

No – In fact, most patients reported a mild “tickling sensation” during use. But, do not be mistaken. The NuLids system, if used daily and as prescribed, should provide a noticeable and substantial improvement to your dry eye and your symptoms.

The NuLids Tip is made of a soft silicone material that has been specifically designed for use on your eye lids. If the Tip inadvertently comes into contact with the eye during use, no pain or harm should occur. A recent clinical study was conducted to assess the safety of the NuLids device. The results of the study found no evidence of any corneal scratch or abrasion as a result of NuLids use.

Yes. The Daily use of the NuLids System will help remove any remaining eye mascara around your Meibomian ducts. However, it is best that you should attempt to remove all of your mascara before using NuLids.

Contact lens wearers are much more likely to suffer from Dry Eye symptoms than non-contact lens wearers. The NuLids treatment is so gentle you can even use NuLids while wearing your contact lenses.

We recommend you use a common sense approach when using your NuLids. NuLids should not be used on cold sores, herpes, active sties (chalazion), open wounds, fungal infections, skin disorders such as rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, raised moles, warts or any other skin inflammation, redness, irritation or infected skin. Do not use on dilated capillaries or very sensitive skin. If you are unsure about your skin condition, we recommend speaking with your doctor before using the NuLids.

Yes, but allow adequate healing after surgery as determined by your surgeon. We recommend that you use NuLids only after approval by your surgeon. Be sure to ask your eye care professional when it will be safe to resume using the NuLids System.

While there is no evidence to suggest that this treatment is harmful to pregnant or nursing women, we always recommend that you consult with your doctor before using any products when you are pregnant or nursing.

If you experience mild discomfort or redness after using NuLids, you may be pressing too hard on the eye lid during treatment. A gentle touch with the device is all that is recommended. However, if any redness and/or discomfort persist for more than one hour, you should contact your eye care professional.
