Zest Eyelid Treatment

ZEST (Zocular Eyelid System Treatment) is a gel made with a refined okra extract, a potent cleanser capable of removing Demodex mites. Gentle enough for the eye area, ZEST effectively cleanses by lifting and removing biofilm, bacteria, oil, debris, and residue from the eyelids. It also soothes inflammation associated with dry eye and blepharitis. Zest is an in-office procedure that involves applying the gel to the eyelid margins and lashes with a sterile foam swab. The optometrist then uses the swab and gel to manually deep clean the eyelid and eyelash area.
