发明名称 Stye care kit and method
摘要 A stye treatment device for concurrent application of temperature and moisture to a stye. The device features a moisture component positioned in a central cavity formed in a sealing edge extending from the rear surface of an eyecup. A temperature component is positioned in the cavity rearward of the moisture component in a position to contact a stye when the device is biased by a strap to the face of the user. The device, when worn by the user, may impart either heat or cold temperature treatments and humidity or moisture treatment concurrently. Excessive pressure against the user's stye and eye is prevented by forming the moisture component of material adapted to collapse should the temperature component contact the face of the user under too much pressure which might otherwise cause pain.

主权项 1. A stye treatment apparatus comprising: an eyecup, said eyecup having a soft, pliable sealing edge projecting from a first end to a second end thereof engaged with a circumference of said eyecup at a rearward side of said eyecup; a cavity, said cavity surrounded by said sealing edge and defined by a sidewall of said sealing edge extending between said first end and second end thereof; a moisture pad comprises a body having a leading side opposite a rear wall and having a side surface communicating therebetween, said moisture pad sized for removable engagement within said cavity; said body of said moisture pad formed of material capable of absorbing a hot or cold liquid; a temperature component, said temperature component having a perimeter adapted for removable positioning within a mounting cavity defined by said rear wall surface of said moisture pad in said removable engagement and said sidewall of said sealing edge between said first end of said sealing edge and said rear wall surface; said temperature component formed of material adapted to store heat or cold and communicate said heat or cold to an exterior surface thereof; said first end of said sealing edge adapted for contact with facial skin surrounding an eye of a user in an as-worn position on the face of said user; means to impart a biasing force to bias said first end of said sealing edge to said as-worn position; and said exterior surface of said temperature component in a positioning within said mounting cavity is adapted for direct contact with portions of said eye afflicted with a stye when said sealing edge is in said as-worn position, whereby heat or cold from said temperature component may be communicated directly to said stye, and moisture from said moisture pad communicates humidity to said mounting cavity which is positioned to surround said stye.
