About SleepTite SleepRite®
SleepTite SleepRite® was conceived by a team of experienced dry eye specialists who recognized a common and significant problem: a substantial portion of their patients didn't fully close their eyelids while sleeping. This incomplete closure, known as Inadequate Lid Seal (ILS), leads to excessive tear evaporation and the hallmark morning dryness, discomfort and itchiness that plagues so many.
Why SleepTite SleepRite® Works
SleepTite SleepRite® is a comfortable, one-time-use device designed to gently hold your eyelids closed while you sleep. By doing so, it helps prevent your eyes from drying out due to incomplete eyelid closure and shields them from exposure to air and other irritants.
Addressing the Root Cause of Overnight Dryness
A significant number of patients experience incomplete eyelid closure during sleep—whether mild or pronounced. Even a small gap exposes the ocular surface to airflow and rapid tear evaporation, leading to:
- ➔ Morning dryness
- ➔ Redness and irritation
- ➔ Burning or stinging sensation upon waking
- ➔ Overnight exposure keratopathy
- ➔ Reduced quality of sleep
SleepTite SleepRite provides a gentle, supportive barrier that helps maintain moisture and protect the corneal surface throughout the night.

What the Doctors Are Saying About SleepTite SleepRite®
Incomplete lid seal is one of the easiest diagnoses to make and requires no extra equipment. When a patient experiences morning dry eye, this alerts me to look for the presence of ILS.
I've made the evaluation for incomplete lid seal (ILS) a part of my standard dry eye work up! Asking patients when their symptoms are worse helps me with the diagnosis. Morning symptoms are usually an indicator of ILS.
SleepTite/ SleepRite is my first choice to combat morning dryness from CPAP machines in those with Obstructive Sleep Apnea. STSR does not interfere with the fit of CPAP and protects the ocular surface while the patient sleeps.
I love SleepTite/SleepRite for my office and for my patients! When I need a safe, comfortable way to keep my patient's eye(s) sealed overnight I reach for SleepTite/SleepRite.
