Dr Loh Kai Lyn, Consultant Ophthalmologist, was invited to appear on the 《狮城有约》 talk show to discuss the growing use of steam eye masks and the potential risks associated with improper usage.
Steam eye masks have become increasingly popular for relieving tired eyes, dryness, and eye strain, particularly among individuals who spend long hours on digital devices. While these self-heating eye masks may provide temporary comfort and relaxation, prolonged or inappropriate use may increase the risk of low-temperature burns and may not be suitable for everyone.
During the media interview, Dr Loh shared important insights and educational information on who should exercise caution when using steam eye masks, common safety considerations, and the importance of seeking professional eye assessment for persistent eye discomfort or dry eye symptoms.
