Why do my eyes sometimes feel dry after using SaunaPod?Updated 2 hours ago

It’s completely normal to notice some temporary eye dryness or redness after a SaunaPod session. Because the SaunaPod uses dry heat, the natural moisture (tear film) on your eyes can evaporate a little faster than usual. Most people find this goes away on its own within a short time.

What can I do to keep my eyes comfortable?

Here are a few easy tips:

  • Close your eyes more often
    Short breaks with your eyes shut help keep moisture in.

  • Blink consciously
    Heat can make us blink less - adding in a few intentional blinks helps refresh your eyes.

  • Stay hydrated
    Drinking a little extra water before and after your session supports overall comfort.

  • Adjust your session if needed
    If you notice dryness often, try a slightly shorter session or sit a bit farther back from the heat source.

  • Use lubricating eye drops (optional)
    Preservative-free artificial tears can be a nice extra on days when your eyes feel particularly dry. They’re not necessary every time, just a helpful tool to have.


Good to know: Most users find that with small adjustments, their eyes feel perfectly fine during and after sessions.
