The Importance of Eyelid Hygiene in Maintaining Eye Health

 

 

Maintaining proper eyelid hygiene is essential for overall eye health. Regularly cleaning your eyelids helps remove debris, bacteria, and excess oil, preventing infections and inflammation. It also promotes the proper functioning of the meibomian glands, ensuring an adequate supply of tears to keep your eyes moisturized. By incorporating eyelid hygiene into your daily routine, you can significantly reduce the risk of developing dry eye and other eye-related problems.
