I've been using computers heavily for over 2 decades

My eye doctors have impressed on me the importance of eye lid health and hot eye compresses. They say everyone should do it twice a day
I'm not sure if I'd go as far as to reccomend that (plenty of people do fine without it) but my eyes get gunky FAST if I skip hot eye compresses
So like do you wet a washcloth with hot water and drape it on or is there a different way?
I have an electric hot eye compress

It's over priced for what it is but it's the ones my doctor recommended and I haven't found a better one. I often will put a damp paper towel on it for moistness
The doctors office itself uses a microwaveable version. The important thing is to use it for at least 7 minutes
