- It is recommended to buy Blefarogel 2 if you suspect an infection of the eyelids, for hygienic and antiseptic treatment of the skin, to prevent the development of pathogenic processes, and to treat eye diseases.
If you have doubts about which drug to buy, it is advisable to give preference to the gel marked “2”, since it has a wider list of indications.
Indications
Blefarogel 2 is used as a hygienic product for the care of eyelids, for the prevention and relief of inflammation of the eyelids, when wearing contact lenses and to relieve eye fatigue.
Blepharogel 2:
- Quickly relieves redness, itching, heaviness of eyelids
- Effectively cleans the surface of the eyelids from scales and crusts
- Moisturizes the skin of the eyelids, increasing its turgor
- Relieves the feeling of eye fatigue
- Serves as a means of preventing barley
- Effective in preventing the occurrence of blepharitis of various etiologies, including demodex.
When is Blepharogel needed?
Blepharogel 1 is used:
- for the removal and prevention of swelling, redness, fatigue, dry skin of the eyelids during prolonged visual stress, wearing contact lenses;
- to eliminate irritation of the eyelids caused by cleansers, decorative cosmetics, street and house dust;
- to increase the effectiveness of massage and other physiotherapy methods.
Blefarogel 2 is acceptable for use for the problems listed above and others:
- the appearance of purulent crusts and painful nodules on the eyelids;
- when the sebaceous ducts of the eyelids are blocked;
- eyelash loss;
- skin itching;
- diagnosed demodicosis of the eyes;
- chalazions;
- complicated infectious conjunctivitis.
The drugs ensure the outflow of gland secretions, improve local blood circulation, prevent congestion in the tissue, and prevent dryness of the eye sclera. Hyaluronic acid in combination with other components replenishes fluid deficiency in the skin, increases elasticity, relieves pain, burning, and a feeling of tightness.
Most eye care products should not be applied to the edges of the eyelashes, as this can cause swelling. Blepharogel, on the contrary, helps prevent them, providing simultaneous hygienic and antiseptic care. With regular use of the drug, most problems can be eliminated without resorting to more expensive means.
Action
Blepharogel 2 is intended for regular hygienic care of the eyelids; it contains a unique bioactive system that combines an advanced approach to cleansing and moisturizing the eyelid skin, preventing inflammation of the eyelid margins, and normalizing the function of the eyelid skin.
Blefarogel 2 contains hyaluronic acid, which cleanses and moisturizes the skin, and also improves its elasticity.
In addition to hyaluronic acid, Blefarogel 2 includes Aloe Vera juice.

The procedure is performed every day 1-2 times after washing. In order for the gel to have its effect, after applying it, it is not advisable to use other products, paint your eyes, or put on lenses for 15–20 minutes.

Reviews
“When I had problems with my eyes (simple irritation or conjunctivitis), I always relied on traditional medicine, and they did not let me down until I fell ill with
demodicosis . Traditional recipes were powerless, and the doctor told me that even with qualified help and the prescription of modern drugs, the course of treatment could last for months.
As a result, I was prescribed the drug blepharogel 2 , which I actually had to use for almost five weeks, but as a result I was able to get rid of the disease completely .”
Yulia Gavrilova, Tver.
“To my surprise, at the age of 30, I discovered
on my right eye , and although I always considered this a childhood disease, the doctors explained that such an ailment is not so rare in adults. I
was recommended to smear the inflamed area with blepharogel , and I did this even when the barley burst. At the same time, I did not experience any painful sensations, and the gel accelerated healing, and I managed to avoid consequences .”
