Abstract

The ring comprising a bottom side comprising an adhesive that allows the covering to be removably attachable to the skin of a human and an outer contoured edge that causes the ring to flex away from the skin such that the fabric layer is held away from the eye when applied to the human. The covering extends over the eye with the ring attached to the skin from a point at the medial orbital margin of the eye to a point at the lateral orbital margin of the eye with the central opening over the eye socket.
