I have used the Nulids device and tips for the last year and a half and I am “hooked”! I look forward to the clean, refreshed feeling I get each evening after using Nulids. I highly recommend using these for good lid hygiene.
Thank you for your excellent review. We are so happy to hear that you are liking the NuLids device!
My wife has used this device and Lid&Lash Cleaner for over a year. Purchased with 90 tips. Early on it became evident that her use of lubricating drops decreased quite a bit. It was also evident that the recurring expense of the tips was the real money maker for Nusight Medical. Tips are to Nulids as cartridges are to ink jet printers. When first marketed they were $1 each ($365/year), now $1.56 each ($569/year). But does it have to be that way? I think not. Tips are not delivered in a sterile manner, but rather 30 to a package. We assume they are clean when delivered. Mechanically it is a piece of formed silicone containing a magnetic pellet. We developed a routine where 15-20 used tips are saved in a closed container, then antiseptically cleaned using Lid&Lash Cleanser and an electric toothbrush; then rinsed in sterilized filtered water; then dried and disinfected using already owned CPAP cleaning equipment. Each of our originally purchased tips has been REUSED multiple time with the same good results as using new tips.
Thank you for your review and feedback. Please note that the reuse of tips is not recommended and can also affect the magnet in the device. We are glad to hear that she is liking Heyedrate as well!

It’s too early to say whether they are making a difference however optimistic based on reviews? I’ve used for a couple of weeks and so far no difference. The one recommendation I have is to change the gel that is provided to put on the tips. It stings and irritates my eyes and I’ve seen that complaint mentioned frequently.
Thank you for your review. We recommend using Systane Nighttime Ointment if you are not liking the NuLids gel that NuSight provides.
I live in Australia, and it seems that not many optometrists here know about the NuLids device yet. At the time of my looking for the device, Eye Love was not able to ship the device to Australia, and it took me a while to find out that my local Optical Superstore was able to get it for me. It also seems that only the 30-pack of disposable tips is available here. For some reason, I haven’t been able to buy the 90-pack in Australia. The 90-pack is cheaper per tip than the 30-pack. I found that ordering the 90-pack from Eye Love, even with the shipping costs involved, was cheaper than buying three 30-packs in Australia. Eye Love parcels always arrive very well packaged, and so far nothing has been broken – even glass bottles. I recommend this website. I’ve been using the NuLids device for nearly 2 months now, and am very pleased with how my eyes seem to be improving.
Thank you for your awesome review. We understand that the NuLids device is not for everyone and are glad to hear that it is working well for you!
