Blepharitis

Filter

Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelid rims which can cause them to become red and swollen and is something that is said to account for 1 in 20 reported eye problems in the U.K. The symptoms can include burning, soreness or stinging in the eyes and crusty or itchy eyelids. This is often caused by a bacterial infection or skin complication such as seborrhoeic dermatitis or rosacea.

Whilst it is not usually serious it is a long-term condition that can result in repeated episodes and it is said to be important to manage this with a routine of cleaning the eyes and finding ways to reduce the discomfort.
