How it works
Reach where drops and a standard rinse cannot.
The underside of the eyelid and the fornix trap inflammation, allergens and particulate matter. Rinsada retracts the lid and irrigates these areas directly.
Irrigate the fornix
Targets the deep recess of the fornix, where normal rinsing cannot reach.
Clean the palpebral conjunctiva
Rinses the underside of the eyelid, where allergens meet the antigen presenting cells.
Rinse the whole surface
Irrigates the entire ocular surface in a single in-office rinse.
Simple setup, efficient cleaning.
The patented irrigating eyelid retractor was engineered to balance simplicity and efficiency, with no capital equipment.

-
Soft curved retractor
Retracts the eyelid away from the eye while irrigating the bulbar and palpebral conjunctiva and the fornix.
-
Five irrigating micro-ports
Two on the top crest, two on the underside and one on the forward tip distribute eye wash in three directions.
-
Sterile eye wash solution
Uses sterile eye wash solution to flush the entire ocular surface and underneath the eyelid.

Common questions about Rinsada
Which patients can benefit from Rinsada?
Symptomatic patients with complaints of eye irritation are often a good fit, since they may have a high inflammatory, allergen or particulate load on the ocular surface. Rinsada uses high-pressure, targeted irrigation to the palpebral conjunctiva and fornix, where this load harbors.
How does Rinsada fit into a practice?
Two good starting patient types are patients with eye irritation or grittiness, and patients receiving other ocular surface procedures such as blepharoexfoliation or meibomian gland expression.
What is in the syringe?
Sterile eye wash solution. The goal is to reach the palpebral conjunctiva and fornix.
How does Rinsada affect workflow?
It is designed for efficient setup and delivery. The procedure can be done in the exam chair before the patient leaves, with minimal equipment.
Can Rinsada help with allergic conjunctivitis?
Rinsada specifically targets the palpebral conjunctiva and is designed to mechanically flush particulate matter such as pollen away from the antigen presenting cells where the allergic response begins.
