New Heat Treatment for Dry-Eye Symptoms

June 14, 2007 - PRLog -- TEMECULA, CA . . . Over 60 million Americans suffer from a potentially debilitating condition known as dry-eye and the numbers are growing. The Wall Street Journal recently reported this is leading to an increased demand for effective dry-eye treatments.

Dr. Robert Latkany, one of the country's leading dry-eye experts and author of the new book The Dry Eye Remedy: The Complete Guide to Restoring the Health and Beauty of Your Eyes, has tested and now recommends tranquileyes Eye Hydrating System for his patients.

Dry-eye symptoms include dryness, redness, scratchiness and burning, and can be caused by vision-correction surgery, contact lens use, low humidity environments, prolonged computer use, allergies and certain medications – to name a few.  The most common cause of dry eye symptoms is normal aging.

Tranquileyes goggles naturally restore moisture by creating heat and increasing humidity around the eye, which helps stimulate tear production and reduce the evaporation of natural tears. 

Now, tranquileyes is introducing a microwavable version of their thermoeyes gel pad inserts to boost the intensity and duration of the tranquileyes moist heat treatment.  Place the gel pads in a cup of water and heat in the microwave.  Then insert the gel pads into the goggles and you've turned up the volume on your dry-eye relief!  The extra heat helps open the meibomian glands which secrete the oily lipid layer of the tear film, slowing evaporation of natural tears. Users will experience noticeable relief in just 10 minutes of use.

Tranquileyes goggles are hypoallergenic and made with FDA approved materials. They feature a beautifully sculpted eye cover, made from medical grade, flexible material.  Fabric lined visco-elastic foam especially designed to form to the face, cushions the eye cover, providing increased comfort while controlling the temperature and humidity within the eye environment.  A uniquely designed adjustable comfort wrap holds the eye covers in place and the stretch fabric ensures no pinching, even with extended wear.

Eye Eco, Inc., based in Temecula, CA, is committed to giving back to the community and donates a percentage of net sales to non-profit organizations dedicated to finding a cure for Sjogren’s Syndrome and other diseases that cause chronic dry eyes.
