NEW YORK – The NuLids System from NuSight Medical provides “a better way to clean the lids at home, and it’s a mechanical solution,” Crystal Brimer, OD, said here at Vision Expo East.

She recommends patients use it not only in cases of cylindrical dandruff or blepharitis, but also with a thickened lid margin or hyperemia or telangiectasia, because “healthy eyes start with healthy tears, and healthy tears start with a healthy lid,” she said.
