A therapeutic eye and eyelid cover provides heated saturated air to the covered tissue and a transparent front (18, 19) to enable clear vision during use. The cover includes heating means (17) and means (22) for saturating the air enclosed against the face with water vapor, preventing evaporation from the eye and eye lids and enhancing heat transfer to the covered tissue. The transparent front is constructed to prevent condensation and maintain clear vision at all times during use.
