This is used with a cotton bud to shampoo the eye lashes of the upper and lower lids on each side. This should be done twice a day for one week and then daily for one week, and then twice a week indefinitely. Alternatively, a proprietary product for lid hygiene called "LID-CARE" may be purchased from the chemist. Follow the instructions in the pack
