Positive Impact has announced the launch of a new eyelid cleanser created by a UK optometrist at the BCLA Conference.
Craig Wilcox created DemEx, a plant-derived foaming cleanser free of allergens that is safe for patients to use at home, to control Demodex blepharitis, ocular rosacea and seborrheic blepharitis. It contains T40, which is derived from tea tree oil and can be used twice daily.
Wilcox, owner of Classic Eyes in Dorset, said: ‘We decided to develop DemEx due to a lack of similar strength solutions available locally. We trialled DemEx for over a year and find it to be well tolerated and effective. Positive Impact has a proven track record in the optical industry and seemed like the logical choice to promote DemEx through its national network of professional representatives.’
The product will be available at the BCLA Conference in Manchester between May 30 and June 1.
