Zusammenfassung: | Embodiments provide a moldable warming device is configured to provide, using a heating disc, therapeutic warmth and, using a harmonic RFSVG, tuned harmonic resonance frequency stimulation vibration according to determined tuning parameters across the contour of the entire surface of the user's eyelid and periorbital structures to induce expression of shear thinned and liquified meibum from each Meibomian gland in all four eyelids to improve the lipid layer of the surface of the user's eye tear film. According to an embodiment, the moldable warming device further includes a pair of removable and reusable eye pads, each eye pad including a miniaturized optical coherence tomography device configured to map, in real-time, a topography of the user's periocular surface, including a mapping of the eyes and the nose including interpupillary distance and corneal apex height above the lateral canthus to optimize conformance of the pair of eye pads to the periocular surface of the user's eyelids. |
