Abstract

A thin flexible member, vertically elongated and hollow, has a rear surface and an oppositely disposed exposed front surface. The member has top and bottom edges and oppositely disposed side edges. The front surface has a slit communicating with the interior of the member which extends between the side edges thereof adjacent but below the top edge thereof. A horizontally elongated flexible strip extends across said member intermediate the top and bottom edges thereof and adjacent the front surface. The strip is secured to the side edges and is otherwise spaced from the front surface. The top portion of the member above the strip can be folded upon the remaining portion of said member and extend through the space between the strip and the member with the slit being disposed below the strip to seal the interior of the member. A flexible cushioning layer can be secured to the rear surface of the member. Alternatively, the member can have a rear pocket in which the cushioning layer can be removably disposed. Two such members can be suitably interconnected to form a structure particularly adapted for thermal treatment of eyes.
