Nulids (pronounced ‘newlids’) helps get your eyelids in better shape.

It is a treatment you can do at home for dry eyes or blepharitis.

What does it do? Nulids helps to clean your eyelids. It also helps the oil glands to flow better.

Like brushing/flossing your teeth- use this device everyday on your eyelids.

Nulids works in two ways:

Reducing material buildup on your eyelids (i.e. bacteria/biofilm/debris)

Promoting clear oil flowing from your oil (or Meibomian Glands)

It uses a device that’s similar in size to an electric toothbrush.

The head oscillates rapidly. It takes fifteen seconds to treat one eyelid. All four eyelids take about one minute.

One clinical study found that:

91% of participants agreed or strongly agreed that the device was easy and convenient to use

95% were satisfied or very satisfied with the overall treatment

How does Nulids compare to Blephex?

Blephex is an in-office treatment done by your eye doctor. This is similar to having a deep-clean by your dentist.

Nulids is a treatment you do every day while you’re at home. Just like brushing your teeth.

Nulids helps reduce buildup on your eyelids. It makes a difference to the comfort of your eyes.

Will it cure my dry eyes?

Nulids is not a cure for dry eyes. However, it’s simple to use daily. It can complement what you’re already doing. Nulids users often say that it reduces their use of OTC and prescription eye drops.

Nulids massages your eyelid area without doing damage.

It helps keep your eyelids clear of debris build up so your glands do not get blocked.

Like plaque on your eyelids, it clears bacteria and biofilm on the outside of your eyelids and eyelashes.

Should I use Nulids before or after warm compresses?

Warm compresses are best used before Nulids. This is because the warmth helps loosen debris in the oil glands before the treatment. Nulids helps the oils to flow better.
