Packaging of ZEISS Warm Eye Mask.

ZEISS Warm Eye Mask has been developed using the latest eyecare insights.

80% of dry eye symptoms are caused by meibum loss2, which can be a result of clogged meibomian glands. ZEISS Warm Eye Masks apply gentle heat to the eyelids, relaxing and stimulating the meibomian glands in the eyes. This helps to soften or melt the meibum, allowing it to be released more easily. This decreases the evaporation of tear fluid reducing painful dry eye symptoms. They are a single-use and individually wrapped for both hygiene and convenience.

How does it work?

  • The thin heating element (made from iron powder, active carbon, salt and water) is packed and laminated to form a thin film inside an air-and steam-permeable membrane.
  • Opening the package gradually introduces oxygen which allows a reaction with the iron powder, generating heat and steam.
  • This simple, safe reaction produces warmth and steam for up to 15 minutes after opening the package.
  • They are designed to reach and apply the desired meibum-melting temperature for a consistent period of time.
