MiBo Medical has been building therapeutic devices since October 2012. The company is based in Dallas, Texas, with manufacturing in Plano, and works to ISO 13485 quality standards. In eye care circles it is best known for the MiBo Thermoflo, an in office device. On this site, MiBo Medical is a single product.
We carry the MiBo USB Heating Pad, a mask that plugs into a USB port instead of going in the microwave. It wraps around the eyes with an adjustable fit, uses far infrared heat, and blocks light while it is on. Because the warmth comes down the cable rather than from stored heat, it holds its temperature for as long as it is plugged in. That is the main practical difference from a bead filled compress.
Our eye mask category splits into three groups, and it helps to know which one you are shopping. Microwavable compresses heat quickly and then cool over a few minutes. Air activated masks are single use and travel well. USB masks like this one, along with the others in our USB powered masks category, stay warm while connected and are reusable, which suits anyone who uses a mask every evening at a desk, in bed or in front of a screen.
Light blocking matters more than people expect. If part of the appeal is winding down at the end of the day rather than warmth alone, the blackout design is a real part of what you are getting.
Check that you have a USB port or adapter where you plan to use it, and remember that a corded mask keeps you within reach of the cable. Your eye care professional can tell you whether warm compresses belong in your routine and how they fit alongside anything else you are doing.
