  • Blepharitis (Eyelid Inflammation) | Causes, Risk Factors, Signs & Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
    Blepharitis is a group of conditions involving inflammation of one or both eyelids. It can be associated with a variety of systemic conditions, including rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis and is also more likely to occur if patients wear contact lenses or have diabetes. In this lesson, we discuss the different types of blepharitis, how it occurs, the signs and symptoms, how it is diagnosed and how it is treated.

    I used pure organic caster oil- first cold compress-hexane free. 1-2 drops each night at bedtime w warm wet rag over eyes. Helps with the itching. Cleared up my problems in 2 weeks😊. Changed my life😊. They told me my eye glands quit working- not so. Caster oil is anti-bacterial anti-viral anti-fungal. Been cleared up for aro 6 months!!changed my life😊

    I like the slide that shows all related causes. There is one cause that is not talked about much is the chemicals irritation. I personnaly have had infiltrates, ulcers and an appearance of veins and redness I have never had, and otherwise in excellent health tracking habits with a journal I might conclude that its due to exposure to scents, or polyurethane finish fumes, or shellac fumes (i use a full face mask with VOC filters).

    My daughter has had prolonged blepharitis which her doctor worked out to be caused by her new reading glasses. Needed steroids to settle it down. She does have a nickel sensitivity but the glasses are tortoise shell frames which are polymer based so not sure if there is a metal component inside. I can’t believe we didn’t make the connection but neither did two previous doctors!

    What about false eyelashes? I always wonder about them- especially those left on for more than a day and inflammation. What is in baby shampoo that makes conjunctivitis better? Or is it just the no tear cleansing alone.

    Hopefully somone who needs this sees this, i basically got all symphtoms down in only 2-3 days mine looked just like 0:29
    so i used Omega 3 pills 1000mg and washed twice a day with a clean warm moist towel/tshirt over my face once in morning and before bed. it really helped.
    also side effect i have less dandruff and less dry skin now from the omega 3 so its a win
