Zocular Eyelid System Treatment (ZEST)

Dry Eye Treatment

Zocular Eyelid System Treatment (ZEST)

ZEST uses a natural okra-based gel to clean and debride the eyelids. The procedure is quick and painless, and it can provide significant relief from the symptoms of dry eye.

ZEST works by removing oil, debris, and bacteria from the eyelids. These substances can build up on the eyelids and block the meibomian glands, which can lead to dry eye. ZEST also helps to open up the meibomian glands, which are responsible for producing oil that helps to keep the eyes lubricated.

In addition to treating dry eye, ZEST can also be used to treat demodex blepharitis. Demodex mites are tiny mites that live on the skin of the eyelids. In some people, these mites can cause inflammation and irritation, which can lead to dry eye. ZEST can help to kill Demodex mites and reduce inflammation, which can provide relief from the symptoms of demodex blepharitis.

How is ZEST performed?

The procedure takes about 10 minutes, and there is no downtime.

The first step is to apply the ZEST treatment gel to the eyelids. The gel is made from a natural okra-based extract that is safe and effective.

Then a micro sponge is used to massage the gel into the eyelids. This will help to remove oil, debris, and bacteria from the eyelids.

The final step is to rinse the eyelids with saline solution.

To maintain these results we recommend using Zocushield which is an at home version of the ZEST treatment.

What are the benefits of ZEST?

ZEST offers a number of benefits over other treatments for dry eye. These benefits include:

• It is a quick and painless procedure.
• It is effective at treating dry eye and demodex blepharitis.
• It is safe for most people.

Who is a good candidate for ZEST?
