Find Relief with ZEST and NuLIDS


The Zocular Eyelid System Treatment (ZEST) is an advanced in-office procedure designed to thoroughly cleanse the eyelids and lashes, removing accumulated debris, bacteria, and residue. This deep clean is ideal for individuals suffering from blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), or dry eye disease, as it helps improve overall eye comfort and health.

Using Zokrex™ technology, a patented formula containing natural okra extract, ZEST effectively clears oils, biofilm, and irritants from the eyelid margins without causing irritation. Most patients experience immediate relief from symptoms such as grittiness, irritation, or dryness following their treatment.

 

NuLIDS PRO is a mechanical massaging tool used by ocular wellness professionals, such as Optometrists, to provide proper lid hygiene. The gentle procedure is performed under the care of an experienced provider, which cleans the eyelashes while massaging the eyelids.
