One of the basic elements of eye health and comfort is ocular hygiene.

The eyelids are rich in sebaceous glands that at certain times or as a result of systemic or local disease states may secrete sebum of inadequate quantity and quality. 

It is therefore of paramount importance to remove these secretions, which are not only irritating, but also create ideal conditions for the proliferation of bacteria, such as Staphylococci, which, normally present on the ocular surface, can under certain conditions become pathological, and of the mite Demodex, which is sensitive only to the action of Tea Tree Oil.
