Aroma Season Heated Eye Mask for Dry Eyes Warm Eye Compress with Flaxseed for MGD Dry Eye Syndrome

I am updating my prior review to 5 stars. First, incredible and unusually great customer service !! The company reached out to me because they read my review and followed up . I was surprised ! They noted that I had an older version and possibly a defective device , as mine got too hot and had no good temp controls or timer. They sent me a replacement . This one has 5 temp levels settings, which correspond to actual temperatures noted in the directions, so you can choose the heat levels based on the actual temperature you need - PLUS a built in timer for 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 minutes . This mask has a built in temp sensor that PREVENTS overheating . It is still the same size and softness and has a wide flat elastic band that easily adjusts for size and the amount of pressure you want against your eyes . It comes with its own charging block , one side takes the device cable and the other side is the end that plugs into the wall outlet . Be sure to use this block as it does not get warm/ hot like other blocks can . I use the mask for dry eye relief and it is truly helping . It’s the best mask I’ve ever used for this . I use it EVERY day and then use the eye wipes and preservative free drops my eye doctor recommends . I have significantly better relief and eye comfort using the mask . I feel like the daily use of this mask is making my eyes better . I use it during the day and the auto shut off timer prevents overheating the skin around and over your eyes . Do not sleep in it as it has a cord that stays attached . I use a separate sleep mask at night to help keep drafts off my eyes . I use this mask 1-2 times daily but you can use it more if needed because it is adjustable for temp and time and has safety features to keep it from getting too hot . I highly recommend this current product version from this company , it is better, safer and works for the purpose — and their customer service is above and beyond- most impressive and caring . OLD review : I have had this for about a year and replaced it . There are no temp settings ,it’s only low, medium and high, not the degrees options shown . There are only 20/40/60 minute time options , again, not as shown . The longer it is on the hotter it gets even if set on low . Medium gets pretty hot . Hot gets way too hot for thin eyelid skin . The ophthalmologist’s recommended 108 degrees for 15 minutes as shown in the description are not even available / possible with this product . It is a good size to focus warmth on the eye area without also heating facial skin . The fabric is soft . There is zero aroma . This was expensive for what it actually is , so is not a good value for the money . If you need it for dry eyes this is not therapeutic . It’s more suitable for ‘ relaxing “ but it still can get too hot so use caution, you must set your own timer to use it less than the big time increments it has. Overall if this is for your eye health - shop around and get one with an adjustable temp and timer . Read more

Although I've used this only once, it seems to be effective, easy to use and that makes it more likely I'll be the regular user I should be. Since it's somewhat "weighted" by the amount of flax seed (a good thing), tightening the elastic portion to hold it on doesn't seems necessary. I mean, really, you're going to be in a prone position for the 20 minutes or so, not trying to move around, right?! I started out with the heat setting at the middle position. That seemed adequate to do the job. Also, the timer is at 10 minute intervals, starting at 10 and going up to 60 minutes. I use a kitchen timer for up to 20 minutes, seems like enough time. Update: I've used this daily for 20 minutes in the afternoon. It continues to be a great little product which is easy to use and does what it says it will do. If a person needs home treatment to help with dry eye syndrome, this is something I would recommend. Read more

The mask is perfect size to cover just the eyes, which is so comfortable. Its temperature control allows you to select a heat level perfect for your comfort. The timer works great and also has choices to accommodate your timing! I love this mask for dry eyes or just to relax strained eyes. It makes your eyes feel great! Read more

Wow this is really nice!! I travel to a couple of places with no microwave, so I needed something. Love that I can make it a moist heat with a few drops of water on the (washable and removable) cover. The heat levels are just right. Fits well, soft and moldable (flax seed I think). The cord is long enough - maybe 5 feet or more. Think I'll get a lot of use out of it. I'm impressed! Read more
