Clinical Safety Study on an Eyelid Warming Device to Evaluate the Eyelid and Cornea Temperature in Healthy Volunteers

January 27, 2012 updated by: Laboratoires Thea

Clinical Safety Study on an Eyelid Warming Device, Moist Heat Technology BLEPHASTEAM®, to Evaluate the Eyelid and Cornea Temperature in Healthy Volunteers

The eyelid warming device is designed to relieve the symptoms of dysfunction of the glands in the eyelids.

Prospective, non comparative, open, monocentre study.

The objectives are:

  • To verify and establish the temperature of the eyelids and cornea for each eye before and after 10 minutes device application
  • To evaluate the ocular surface, NIBUT and IOP before and after device application
  • To determine the acceptability of healthy volunteers on the practical use of this device

The subjects will attend 2 visits.
