Or the eyelid edges may turn inward or outward.<\/li><li><strong>Excess tearing or dry eyes.<\/strong>\u00a0Abnormal oily secretions and other debris shed from the eyelids, such as flaking associated with dandruff, can accumulate in your tear film \u2014 the water, oil and mucus solution that forms tears. Abnormal tear film interferes with the healthy lubrication of your eyelids. This can irritate your eyes and cause symptoms of dry eyes or excess tearing.<\/li><li><strong>Difficulty wearing contact lenses.<\/strong>\u00a0Because blepharitis can affect the amount of lubrication in your eyes, wearing contact lenses may be uncomfortable.<\/li><li><strong>Sty.<\/strong>\u00a0A sty is an infection that develops near the base of the eyelashes. The result is a painful lump on the edge (usually on the outside part) of your eyelid. A sty is usually most visible on the surface of the eyelid.<\/li><li><strong>Chalazion.<\/strong>\u00a0A chalazion occurs when there\u2019s a blockage in one of the small oil glands at the margin of the eyelid, just behind the eyelashes. The gland can become infected with bacteria, which causes a red, swollen eyelid. Unlike a sty, a chalazion tends to be most prominent on the inside of the eyelid.<\/li><li><strong>Chronic pink eye.<\/strong>\u00a0Blepharitis can lead to recurrent bouts of pink eye (conjunctivitis).<\/li><li><strong>Injury to the cornea.<\/strong>\u00a0Constant irritation from inflamed eyelids or misdirected eyelashes may cause a sore (ulcer) to develop on your cornea. Insufficient tearing could predispose you to a corneal infection.<\/li><\/ul><h4>Blepharitis Treatment<\/h4><p>Treatment of blepharitis should start with\u00a0<a href=\"\/es\/contact-us\/\">contacting your Family Eye Physicians eye doctor<\/a>\u00a0to identify the cause of your eyelid issues. Your eye doctor will examine your eyes and eyelids to determine if you have blepharitis and what type of treatment is applicable.<\/p><p>Typically, blepharitis treatment includes:<\/p><ul><li>Eyelid scrubs. Gently scrubbing your eyelids removes the buildup of biofilm and bacteria. Your eye doctor typically will recommend a daily regimen of warm compresses and eyelid scrubs.<\/li><\/ul><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyloaded alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/familyeyephysicians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/OCuSOFT-Lid-Scrub-Plus.jpg\" alt=\"OCuSOFT Lid Scrubs\" data-src=\"http:\/\/familyeyephysicians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/OCuSOFT-Lid-Scrub-Plus.jpg\" \/><\/h4><p>Recognized as the market leader and #1 recommended by eye doctors,\u00a0<a href=\"\/es\/how-to-use-ocusoft-lid-scrubs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"OCuSOFT\u00ae Lid Scrub\u00ae Eyelid Cleansers (opens in a new tab)\">OCuSOFT\u00ae Lid Scrub\u00ae Eyelid Cleansers<\/a>\u00a0are intended for daily use and are available in pre-moistened pads or foam pump dispensers for easy application.<\/p><ul><li>In-office procedures.
