"My eyes don't feel like sandpaper by bedtime anymore."
I used to put drops in four or five times every evening while watching TV. Now I use Ocura for 15 minutes after dinner and I barely reach for them. The warmth lasts the whole time, which my microwave mask never did.

A thin graphene heating film warms up in seconds and holds steady warmth between 108°F and 118°F for the whole session, so the muscles around your eyes soften while they're pressed.
Soft air cushions slowly fill and release around your eyes, your temples and the brow above them, like fingertips easing the tension away.
Five modes from 10 to 20 minutes, including a heat-only Sleep mode with soft music. It switches itself off when the session ends.
WHY EYES GET DRY
If your eyes feel gritty by evening and drops only help for an hour, this is probably why.


Tiny glands along the edge of your eyelids spread a thin layer of oil over your tears, so they don't dry out between blinks. With age, menopause and long hours on screens, that oil thickens and stops flowing.
Drops add water for an hour or so, but they can't replace the oil. Steady warmth on closed eyelids softens it so it can flow again.
Sound familiar?
In a study of 224 people with dry eye, about 86% had blocked eyelid oil glands. The usual advice is:

HOW TO USE IT

PUBLISHED RESEARCH
Researchers have studied heated eye massagers and eye warming. These studies did not test Ocura itself.
Eye doctors have suggested warm compresses for dry eyes for decades. The hard part has always been keeping them warm long enough to help.
Why Ocura holds its temperature
4-week randomized trial, 95 people with dry eye
People who used a heated, vibrating eye massager twice a day had a bigger drop in dry eye symptoms than people who used lubricating eye drops five times a day.

Warming the area around the eyes just before bed helped them fall asleep 8.5 minutes faster than a sham mask, and their bodies shifted toward rest.

Thickened eyelid oil softens at around 104 to 113°F, and a hot washcloth has to be reheated about every two minutes to stay in that range.

Contact usOcura warms to between 108°F and 118°F (42 to 48°C), the range used for warm compresses, and every mode switches itself off after 10 to 20 minutes. The air cushions press gently around the eye socket, temples and brow, not on the eye itself. Start with Soothing mode, and take it off if anything feels uncomfortable.
Please don't use Ocura if you have glaucoma, cataracts, a detached retina, high eye pressure or any other eye condition, if you've had surgery around the eyes, or if the skin there is red, swollen or broken. Don't use it if you are pregnant or have a pacemaker or another implanted device, and check with your doctor first if you have heart disease or high blood pressure.
Ocura is made for the tight, pressing kind of headache that builds around the temples and behind the eyes by late afternoon. The warmth and the slow kneading help the muscles there let go. If you get migraines, don't use heat during an attack: switch to Eye Protection mode, which has no heat, and stop if it hurts. See a doctor first about any sudden, severe or new headache, especially after 50, or if your temple is tender or your jaw hurts when you chew.
Warm compresses are one of the first things eye doctors suggest for dry eyes caused by thickened eyelid oil, and Ocura keeps that warmth steady for the whole session. In a 2014 trial, people who used a heated eye massager twice a day had a bigger drop in dry eye symptoms than people using eye drops. If your dry eye is severe, keep following your eye doctor's plan.
Yes. Ocura doesn't replace anything your doctor has prescribed. Many people use it alongside their drops and find they reach for them less often.
One 15-minute session once or twice a day. Evenings are the favorite time, because it also helps you wind down before bed.
Yes, that is what Sleep mode is for. It uses gentle heat and soft music with no air pressure, and it switches itself off after 20 minutes.
Take off your glasses and take out contact lenses before each session. Remove false lashes too.
There are five modes. Vitality adds vibration for a 10-minute pick-me-up. Relaxation and Soothing combine air pressure and heat for 15 minutes. Eye Protection is air pressure without heat, and Sleep is heat only. Start with Soothing and see how it feels.
Yes. Double-press the button to turn the built-in music on or off, or connect your phone by Bluetooth to listen to your own audio while you relax.
You'll hear a soft hum when the air cushions fill and release. If you want silence, Sleep mode uses heat only, with no air pressure.
Charge it with the included USB-C cable from any phone charger or computer. The light flashes while it charges and stays on when it is full. It can't be used while it is charging.
Wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. Ocura is not washable, so keep it away from water and out of the bathroom.
The first set is one Ocura. The second set comes with two, so you can keep one and give one to someone you love, or keep one by the bed and one in your travel bag. It works out to $99.50 each.

My eye doctor told me to do warm compresses twice a day. With a washcloth I gave up after a week because it kept going cold. This one I actually look forward to.

My mother is 78 and has dry eyes and trouble sleeping. She uses it every night before bed and calls it her spa time. We got the two-pack so we both have one.

The first time I put it on the strongest mode and it was a bit much for me. On the softest mode it is perfect. Four stars because I wish the strap were a little longer for my thick hair.

I sit at a screen all day and by five o'clock I can feel it behind my eyes and at my temples. The slow squeeze at the temples is my favorite part.

I read a lot and my eyes get tired and gritty. Fifteen minutes of this before bed and they feel calm again, and I fall asleep more easily afterwards too.

It folds up small and I used it on a long flight. You can hear the pump a little, but my seatmate didn't seem to notice.

I had a $30 one that stopped working after two months and never got properly warm. This one is warm within seconds and feels much better made.
