How to Use SleepTite SleepRite for Optimal Relief
We're excited for you to experience the comfort of waking up with refreshed, hydrated eyes. Following these simple steps will help you get the best possible results from your nighttime dry eye support.
Why Proper Use Matters
SleepTite SleepRite is designed to gently keep your eyelids closed overnight, preventing tear evaporation and protecting your eyes from irritants. By following these instructions, you maximize the effectiveness, so you wake up feeling rested and comfortable, ready to face the day without the discomfort of dry eyes.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Using SleepTite SleepRite is quick and easy!
1. Cleanse Your Skin: Before bed, gently wash and dry your face, especially around your eyes. We highly recommend using the SleepTite SleepRite Lid Prep. Be sure your skin is free of any oils, lotions, or makeup, as this will help the lid seals adhere properly.
2. Prepare the Patch: Carefully peel one SleepTite SleepRite lid seal from its backing. Handle the adhesive side as little as possible to maintain its stickiness.
 **Important Note: Be sure to be seated on your bed for the next steps. Do not attempt to walk with the SleepTite SleepRite Lid Seals on.
3. Position Over Your Eye: Gently close one eye. Place the center of the lid seal over your eyelid, ensuring it covers your entire eyelid and extends slightly onto the skin above and below your eye. Gently Secure: Lightly press the patch down around the edges to ensure full contact with your skin. The patch should feel secure but not uncomfortably tight.
*It is generally recommended to start with one eye until comfortable before proceeding to using on both eyes.
4. Repeat for Other Eye if Desired: Follow steps 2-4 for your other eye.
5. Enjoy Your Sleep: Sleep as you normally would. The lid seals are designed to stay comfortably in place throughout the night.
**If you need to get up during the night, gently remove the seals and place them on the original backing. Once back in bed, you can reapply.
6. Gentle Removal: In the morning, slowly and gently peel the lid seals off your skin. If you experience any resistance, you can lightly dampen the edges with warm water to loosen the adhesive.
Tips for Best Results
- Consistency is Key: For continuous relief, incorporate SleepTite SleepRite into your nightly routine.
- Storage: Store patches in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve their adhesive quality.
- Skin Sensitivity: If you have very sensitive skin, consider trying the SleepTite SleepRite Sensitive Skin version for an even gentler experience.
- Lid Seal Placement: Experiment slightly with placement to find the most comfortable and effective position for your unique eye shape. The goal is to ensure complete eyelid closure.
Important Considerations
- For External Use Only: SleepTite/SleepRite patches are designed for external use on the skin around the eyes. Do not apply directly to the eyeball.
- Discontinue Use if Irritation Occurs: If you experience any prolonged irritation, redness, or discomfort, discontinue use and consult with a healthcare professional.
- Keep Out of Reach of Children: Store the product safely away from children.
