Ortopad® Bamboo Eye Patches for Girls, Medium Size, 50/Box

Great for use with toddlers. Sticks very nicely and awesome designs make it easy to wear!

We got these patches for our toddler with strabismus in one of her eyes. Aside from her being somewhat resistant to having something over her eye at first, she loves these. The designs are fun and she likes to help pick out her patch, we let her use them as a “sticker” afterwards too! The adhesive isn’t too bad when taking it off- I believe it’s just right for adherence while patching but also takes a bit of pull- again, not excessive!

After reading other reviews, I have to agree that these patches truly do stick. The first time I put it on my daughter, I put it on her straight outta the package and that was a mistake. It stuck so tightly around her eye that she screamed and cried when I peeled it off. She had red marks on her face for hours. After reading more reviews, I’ve used the arm method, meaning that right outta the package, I put the patch on my arm, peal it off, put it back on my arm again and then peel it off. Then at that point, it’s not as sticky and I’m able to put it on my daughter’s eye. Sometimes that causes a corner to lift but luckily she has to wear glasses in addition to the patch, so the glasses stop it from completely lifting and from her messing with it. Once I figured the arm stickiness trick, I became super happy with these and have already bought multiple packs as she goes through at least 1 a day.

The adhesive is very sticky and irritates sensitive skin. Before applying to our toddler we need to remove some of the adhesive by tapping the sticky part on and off our skin. We also fold down a small section to make removal easier.

We’ve been patching for about two years now and this is the only brand I’ll use for my daughter’s sensitive skin. They’re soft and have so many different patterns to choose between.
