Eyedrops
Great as maintenance, and 15-20 minutes before using Cequa, Xiidra, or Restasis. *Refer to prescription handout*
Thealoz Duo
Great to use as last step, after prescription drops (wait 15 minutes before application--follow manufacturer's instructions or prescription handout). Or, use before bed.

Hygiene
Gentler on skin--including the eyelids--than other cleansers or wipes I've tried. Balm-to-oil texture. Use on dry face first, then add water to scrub before completely rinsing.
Squalane Cleanser
For on the go. Lightly mist. Use a clean towel or cotton pad to wipe if desired.
Hypochlorous Acid Spray
Save money and (re)fill your spray bottle with this
Hypochlorous Acid Refill
Other
Steam eye mask that acts as a warm compress for eye strain, dry eyes, MGD, styes, chalazions. The product linked (GJOOKA) is my favourite because it's hot enough for me, and unscented.
Steam Eye Masks for Dry Eyes (Self Heating)
If I need to heat my eyes for longer than 20 minutes, I use this cordless rechargable option
Cordless Heated Eye Mask for Dry Eyes
I use this to help prevent my eyes from drying out while sleeping, or protect from AC/fan/heating. Or, on top of a steam eye mask to keep it warm a little longer.
