About the Product
The OPTASE Moist Heat Mask is a reusable microwavable eye mask made of soft and reinforced cotton and built around Advanced Hydrobead Technology. It is supplied with a protective pouch to keep it clean and dust free when not in use. The head straps contain latex. The same mask can also be chilled in a freezer and used cold.
This is a warm compress. Heated for 25 seconds in an 800 watt microwave, it is strapped over closed eyes and worn for 10 minutes per treatment. Used cold instead, it is frozen in a sealed bag for 30 minutes and worn for 5 to 7 minutes. Test the temperature with your fingers before the mask goes near your eyes, and replace the mask after 6 months of daily use.
