I already tried fish oil, even krill. Why is this different?

Your fish oil was rancid before you opened it. Two in three flavored ones tested that way. Cheap krill is cooked in the factory and comes out brown. Antarctic red krill live in water about to freeze, and their oil still pours. Avolei is cold-pressed, so the red stays in. Cut one open next to your old bottle and see it.

What is The Eyelid Oil Change?

Your lids build their oil from the omega-3 you give them. Starve them of fresh omega-3, and they make oil as thick as toothpaste, batch after batch. Krill oil is deep red, and that red keeps it from going rancid, so it gets there fresh. Fresh in, and the oil pours again. That's The Eyelid Oil Change.

How do I take it?

Two small softgels a day with a meal. Keep everything you already do. The 2-month bottle is 120 softgels.

My skin flares easily. Is this OK?

Yes. The label is short: krill oil in a softgel. Every flare burns through the fresh oil your lids need, so they starve faster than anyone's. That's why they need it fresh. “When my cheeks flare now, my eyes don't automatically flare with them.” Melissa T., 33

This is the only thing that helped after three rounds of IPL. My eye doctor had literally run out of ideas.

I was literally scared to try another omega after the fish oil disaster. The smell test sold me. Zero smell. Zero burps.

I cut one open and the oil was red. My old krill from the pharmacy looked brown in comparison. I knew immediately this wasn't the same thing.

Week 3 I realized I'd driven to work and back and hadn't thought about my eyes once. I cried in the parking lot.

✓A doctor told you it's “manageable.”

If you checked even one, your lids have been starved of fresh omega-3.

How it works

Why your eyes kept burning, and what finally changes the oil

Your lids make oil from what you give them. If your last IPL gave you even two good weeks, your glands can still be fed.

STEP-BY-STEP DIAGRAM — the whole mechanism in one picture
STEP IMAGE — the fix, shown Step · 1

Your eyelids make a thin, clear oil that spreads over your tears every time you blink.

STEP IMAGE — the fix, shown Step · 2

Your lids build their oil from the omega-3 you give them. Starve them of fresh omega-3, and they make oil as thick as toothpaste, batch after batch.

STEP IMAGE — the fix, shown Step · 3

Drops add water. Heat melts it for an hour. IPL drains it. None of them changes the oil your lids make next.

STEP IMAGE — the fix, shown Step · 4

Krill oil is deep red, and that red keeps it from going rancid, so it gets there fresh. Fresh in, and the oil pours again. That's The Eyelid Oil Change.

In a 3-month study, only the krill group's dry eye symptoms dropped.

The krill behind it

When food runs out, krill save their eyes first.

If any creature knows how to protect its eyes, it's this one.

SECTION IMAGE

Krill are tiny red shrimp from the coldest water on earth. Water so cold it's about to freeze.

When food runs out, a krill gives up everything else before it gives up its eyes.

Out there, most oils turn thick. Krill oil still pours. That's the oil your lids are fighting to make.

Krill make their own red. No fish can. It's their armor against the Antarctic sun. And it keeps their oil fresh. We press it cold, so your capsule still has its armor on.

Only krill do all 3:

  • Protects its eyes first.
  • Oil that pours in ice water.
  • Its own red armor.

Avolei puts that oil in a capsule, made for your eyes. Cut a capsule open on a white saucer. Ours runs deep red.

It's not that omega-3 can't help your eyes. You just never had it fresh from the ice.

Dry eye specialist

“For three years I told my patients to stop the fish oil. My own mother was one of them. I was reading the wrong study. The procedure clears today's oil. Nothing in the procedure changes what your lids make tomorrow. I keep a bottle of cheap krill and a bottle of cold pressed krill in my clinic. I cut both open at every new patient consultation. The cold pressed one I keep in my clinic is Avolei.”

A round of three IPL sessions runs $900 to $1,800, and the good weeks run out. LipiFlow runs $700 to $1,500. Avolei is about 67¢ a day on 4 Months.

Before you buy krill anywhere, check 3 things:

  • Cut one open. Deep red, not brown.
  • Open the bottle. No fishy smell.
  • No lemon flavor. Lemon hides oil that's gone bad.

Most krill on Amazon fails the first one. Ours runs red. Only sold here.

No.

“No fishy smell, no burps. I was on lemon fish oil for eight months and had almost identical symptoms when I stopped as when I started. This is completely different.” Christine L., 52

What's inside

One ingredient with one job: fresh omega for your lids.

Antarctic krill oil, with its own red and the phospholipids that carry it.

INGREDIENT PHOTO

Antarctic krill oil, cold-pressed · Pressed without cooking, so the red stays in

The omega-3 your lids build their oil from.

→ So the oil your lids make next can pour again.

INGREDIENT PHOTO

Astaxanthin, krill's own red · Made by the krill itself. Nothing added.

The deep red you see when you cut one open. It keeps the oil fresh, so it doesn't go stale on the way to your lids.

→ So your lids get fresh oil to work with, not stale oil.

INGREDIENT PHOTO

Phospholipids · Krill's omega-3 comes wrapped in them

They help your body soak up the omega-3. They mix in instead of floating on top, so no fishy burps.

→ So more of every softgel gets to your lids.

INGREDIENT PHOTO

Small quick-release softgels · 60 or 120 per bottle · 2 a day with a meal

Two small softgels. Nothing to mix, nothing in your eyes.

→ So it takes two seconds at breakfast.

Third-party tested. Free of gluten and soy. Contains shellfish (krill).

Before you decide

Questions women ask before they start

Can I take it with my drops, my medicine or a procedure?

Yes, it goes right alongside everything you already do. On a daily medicine? Show your doctor the bottle. Then let it work on the oil the others can't reach.

Why hasn't my eye doctor told me about this?

A lot of eye doctors read the same headline Dr. Whitmore did, about a big study where fish oil did what olive oil did. In her words: “I spent years asking patients if they'd tried omega. I should have been asking if they'd tried fresh omega.” Bring the bottle to your next visit.

I already tried fish oil. Why would this be different?

Your fish oil was rancid before you opened it. Even unflavored fish oil has no red of its own, and once it's open in a warm cabinet it goes off faster. Rancid fish oil doesn't feed them. You swallowed it every morning and your lids still starved. Avolei is cold-pressed krill and runs deep red. Cut one open next to your old capsule and see the difference.

How fast will I notice?

The grit starts to ease in 1 to 3 weeks. Give it 8 weeks for the full change. Later on, skip it for a week and you'll feel the sand come back. That's your proof.

Which pack should I choose?

2 Months covers your first 8 weeks and comes with The 8-Week Drop Count. Some lids take up to 3 months, and if you stop for a week the dryness comes back, so 4 Months carries you through. It ships free and adds The Winter Dry-Eye Guide.

What if it doesn't work for me?

Take two a day. If your mornings aren't easier, one email within 90 days of delivery gets every dollar back. Keep the bottles, even the empty ones. Not one IPL ever came with that.

The label says heart, brain and joint support. Is it the right one for my eyes?

Yes. It's the same Antarctic krill oil, with its own red, and the label lists what omega-3 does all over your body. Your eyelids are one of the places that use it: they build their oil from the omega-3 you give them. Cut one open and you'll see it runs deep red.

Is there shellfish in it?

Yes. Krill is shellfish, and the label says so. If shellfish isn't safe for you, skip this one.

How long does shipping take?

Orders ship in 2 to 3 business days with tracking. Start now and you're well in before winter air dries your eyes out.

How do I reach you?

Email support@avolei.com and a real person will get back to you. Orders ship in 2 to 3 business days with tracking, and the 90-Day Better Mornings Guarantee is one email to that same address.

Still reading?

Your eyes didn't need managing. They were starving.

Picture waking up and just opening your eyes, with no drops on the nightstand.

Leave them starving, and they can waste away too. Once they're gone, they're gone for good.

Wait, and tomorrow's oil sets the same way. Or start The Eyelid Oil Change today.
