Is BlephEx Right For You?

BlephEx is a cleansing and exfoliating technique that removes oil and debris from your eyelids. It is used to treat dry eye conditions and blepharitis—a condition that causes inflammation and redness of the eyelids. 

The main reason behind the inflammation is blocked glands, which can be caused by an excess of Demodex mites. The BlephEx dry eye treatment removes these blockages to help reduce the effect of the symptoms and provide relief.

If you have one of the following, BlephEx may be right for you: 

  • Swollen eyelids
  • Itchy eyes
  • Dry eyes
  • Burning or stinging sensation in your eyes
  • Foreign body sensation
  • Watery eyes
  • Crusty eyelids or eyelashes
  • Light sensitivity


Come and talk to our eye doctors at our clinics in East Cobb and Kennesaw for a definite diagnosis and to discuss your treatment.

How BlephEx Works

BlephEx is a dry eye treatment that works by using a fast spinning micro sponge to remove debris from the eyelids and lashes. It cleanses and exfoliates biofilm, crust and the associated bacterial toxins. The process is entirely painless and most patients only feel a mild tickling sensation. If preferred, numbing drops can be used to minimize this. 

Treatment only takes a few minutes and can be repeated as needed. Each sponge is disposable and a clean one is used for each eye to prevent spreading bacteria. After the treatment, your eyes will be rinsed and you’ll be instructed on how to keep your eyelids clean with a regular routine at home

BlephEx vs. Our Other Dry Eye Treatments

So, does BlephEx help with dry eye? BlephEx dry eye treatment addresses a specific eye condition, blepharitis, which can lead to dry eye issues. For those who suffer from blepharitis, this remedy is effective and safe. 

Other eye problems such as meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). are treated with remedies such as MiboFlo or intense pulsed light therapy (IPL). The key to improved eye health is to get the right diagnosis for your dry eyes. You can then receive the appropriate remedy. 

For example, if your tears drain too quickly from your eyes, punctual plugs may be the answer. Or if you have corneal irregularity, scleral lenses can help. Each of our treatments is delivered with professional care and understanding of how uncomfortable this syndrome can be.
