Rinsada Eye Irrigation
Rinsada is an irrigating lid retractor. It lifts the lid and flushes the ocular surface and the fornices in one motion, removing biofilm, debris, allergens, and trapped irritants that drops cannot reach.
Key points
- Combines a lid retractor with a directed irrigation channel in one instrument.
- Flushes the ocular surface and the upper and lower fornices.
- Removes biofilm, particulate, allergens, and trapped irritants.
- Featured for biofilm removal and used in cases such as SLK. We carry it.
What it is
Rinsada is a single instrument that combines a lid retractor with a directed irrigation channel, protected by US Patent 11,471,143. It lets you retract the lid and rinse at the same time, reaching the fornix, the pocket behind the lid where debris and biofilm collect and where ordinary drops never flush.
How it works
Directed irrigation lavages the ocular surface and the superior and inferior fornices, mechanically removing biofilm and particulate. Because the device retracts the lid as it irrigates, the fluid reaches areas a simple eyewash bottle cannot, and the clinician controls exactly where the stream goes. Rinsada product information.
The science and use cases
Biofilm on the ocular surface and lid margin contributes to chronic irritation and inflammation, and mechanical lavage is a direct way to remove it. Rinsada has been featured in Optometry Times for biofilm removal from the ocular surface, including a case using the device for superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis.

Where it fits
Reach for Rinsada after irritant, allergen, or chemical exposure, for persistent debris or biofilm that lingers despite drops, and for surface conditions such as SLK. It complements lid hygiene rather than replacing it, and it is a fast, in-office step.
Practical notes
Follow the manufacturer instructions for use and reprocessing supplied with the device. Rinsada is available on the Dry Eye Rescue wholesale platform.

Frequently asked questions
Do you carry Rinsada?
Yes. Rinsada is available on the Dry Eye Rescue wholesale platform.
When would I use it?
When you need to flush the fornices, after irritant or allergen exposure, or to clear biofilm and debris that linger despite drops.
What conditions has it been used for?
Beyond routine surface flushing, it has been featured for biofilm removal and used in cases such as superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis.
How is it different from an eyewash?
Rinsada retracts the lid and directs the irrigation into the fornix, so it reaches debris and biofilm that a simple eyewash leaves behind.
Is it reusable?
Follow the manufacturer instructions for use and reprocessing provided with the device.
