Blephaclean Sterile Eyelid Cleansing Wipes - Pack of 20

Blephaclean Sterile Eyelid Cleansing Wipes are sterile, single-use wipes impregnated with a gentle cleansing lotion for the daily hygiene of the eyelids and eyelashes. Designed for use on the skin around the eyes (not directly in the eye), they help keep lids clean and comfortable by removing crusts, secretions/discharge, dust, pollen and traces of make-up.

Blephaclean is commonly used as part of an eyelid-hygiene routine where lids are irritated or inflamed, including:

• Blepharitis (eyelid inflammation) and related lid margin issues (e.g., meibomian gland dysfunction)
• Styes or chalazion care routines
• When eyelids need gentle cleansing due to allergy, infection or discharge
• Before and after ophthalmic procedures when recommended by an eye care professional

Suitable for

• Adults
• Children over 3 months (parents/carers should administer)

Pack size: 20 sterile wipes (individually wrapped). 

For use on eyelids/skin only. Do not put directly into the eyes.

Dosage (general recommendations)

• Before eye surgery: use twice daily for 5 days, or as your doctor/pharmacist tells you.
• Other cases: use twice daily (morning and evening) for 3 weeks, then once daily for 3 months or as advised. Some conditions are chronic and may need ongoing lid hygiene.
