Rebecca's description

I consider taping the most reliable form of night dry eye protection - yes, better than goggles and masks. For practical reasons, though, nobody's going to choose this unless they really have to.

Mepitac is still my favorite tape - hands down. Absolutely worth the extra cost. When I need to tape a lid down, I apply one strip of the wider type vertically, pressing down the top downwards and removing it top down as well.

Obviously not suitable for those with silicone allergy, but for the rest of us, it's about as eyelid/eyelash friendly as a tape can get.

Please note that there are a variety of tape application approaches. Vertical does not work for everyone! Believe it or not there are even youtube videos on the subject. Experiment till you find the method that seals your lids the most effectively. Schedule a consultation if you need help.
