WHAT IS BLEPHARITIS:
Blepharitis means inflammation of the eyelids. It causes the eyes to feel sore and gritty. It can be a troublesome and recurring condition with no one-off cure. However, once symptoms have improved, daily eyelid hygiene can usually keep symptoms to a minimum.
SYMPTOMS OF BLEPHARITIS:
• The main symptom is sore eyelids. Both eyes are usually affected.
• The eyes may feel gritty, itchy or as though they are burning.
• The eyelids may look inflamed or greasy.
• The eyes may become sticky with discharge. In particular, the eyelids may stick together in the morning.
• Sometimes tiny flakes or scales appear on the eyelids, which look like small flakes of dandruff. Crusts may develop at the base of eyelashes.
• One or more of the tiny glands of the eyelids (meibomian glands) may block and fill with an oily fluid.
COMPLICATIONS OF BLEPHARITIS:
In most cases, blepharitis is uncomfortable but not serious or sight-threatening. Complications are uncommon, here are a few but please click the link below for more:
• Stye. This is a painful infected swelling most prominent on the outside of the eyelid. It is due to an infection of the root (follicle) of an eyelash. Contact lens wearers may find their lenses feel uncomfortable when they have a flare-up of blepharitis.
See your GP or an optometrist if you have a very painful stye that isn't getting better. If this happens, the stye may need to be drained.
Changes to the eyelashes (which mainly occur in severe and long-standing cases). These include:
• Loss of eyelashes (madarosis).
• Misdirection of eyelashes towards the eye (trichiasis).
• Loss of the colour of the eyelashes (poliosis).

EYELID HYGEINE:
Cleaning your eyelids to remove the crusts and scales from the eyelid margins and unblock the eyelid glands. To begin with you may need to clean your eyelids twice a day. In the long-term, you will need to clean them at least two or three times a week to prevent blepharitis from returning. Please always wash your hands before and after.
Full detail in video but here is a summary:
Warm Compress,
The purpose of warmth is to soften the skin and any crusts attached to the eyelids. It also allows the oily secretions made by the meibomian glands to flow more freely, as warmth makes oils more runny. Therefore, warmth helps to unplug any blocked glands and allow the oily secretions to flow more readily. Warmth applied to the eyelids for five to ten minutes is sufficient to do this.
Eyelid Massage,
Massage the eyelids immediately after applying the warmth. Massaging helps to push out the oily fluid from the tiny meibomian glands.
Cleaning The Eyelid,
After warmth and massage, clean the eyelids. This can be done by any of the following ways. There is a lack of research studies to say which is the best method, but I prefer the traditional method.
OMEGA 3 AND BLEPHARITIS:
Omega 3 supplements have been shown to reduce the symptoms of blepharitis and eye dryness. They are not available on prescription, but you can buy them from a range of pharmacies and health food shops.
Please leave a comment below and let us know if you have taken Omega 3 and found it helpful.

I'm so glad to have found this video. My doctor was too busy inching out of the room with his hand on the doorknob to explain how to do this. Thanks for posting it!
Thanks for commenting, glad I could help. It can be difficult to fit in all the information in a consultation :)
I woke up.
I grabbed my phone.
I had a TH-cam notification.
This was my very first smile of this new Monday. Thank you Abraham!
Thanks for commenting, glad you like the video and it made you smile :)
Love the video and energy. Dead Positive. I was diagnosed with Blepharitis last year and it was so hard for me getting used to this. I had surgery, and I still have problems. It’s a scary thing. It’s a everyday battle. Good luck to everyone else going through it keep on maintaining and keeping yourself healthy🤞🏽 I wish there was a cure for this.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
🙏
I think this just saved my life...I got blepharitis out of NOWHERE 3 years ago and it’s a huge struggle. Thank you for this video!
Thanks for commenting, glad I could help :)
Google these three words together. Ivermectin Blepharitis Demodex.
Short and relevant and to the point. No sales pitch. I'm just checking on my ophthalmologist who recently diagnosed the condition and recommended pretty well the same treatment as you which reinforces the message. Thanks to both of you.

Thanks for commenting, couldn't agree with you more :)
Spring time and my dry eyes get worse. I love these tips, thank you.

My eyes are so crusty everyday when I wake up. I took a pic and shown it to my doctor who prescribed some eye drops which didn't really help. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow so I will mention it again. That didn't even know there was a name for this condition. Thank you so much.

I also went to my primary doctor and received eyedrops which did nothing. Then went to my eye doctor who prescribed an ointment, the warm compress, the same message technique and many follow up visits. I think the ointment kept the eyelid blocked while I paid for all those visits. Now I'm going to try the technique from this video because it makes the most sense! Hope this helps. 😁
Hi@@tonylucidi6343 , what problem you are facing. Have you get eye lid swollen after getting a white pimple on edge of the eye lid base skin and later having pain due to swelling and finally geting burst resulting in puss and blood coming out. And then the swelling goes after 2 days but this problem reappears after 4-5 days some times in same eye and some times in other eye. Continuiously suffering from this condition from last 6-8 months. I dont know what is causing this issue. But I am disappointed with eye specialist doctors of not daignosing the issue and keep on giving antibiotic ointments to put on the base of eye lashes.
I’m assuming I’m not the only one here scratching their eyes/drowning themselves in eye drops while watching this lol
Hey do you have a chalazion or something else? Let me know because i have a chalazion and i need help from someone who had one i want to know about their recovery progress
Andrew Diaz I don’t surprisingly, but I suggest taking fish oil pills daily, I take them every day and they work like a absolute dream! Also if you use eye drops make sure to use ones that don’t have preservatives, some eye drops do have them and can further irritate your eyes. Personally I use Hyrdasense preservative free. And yes I did learn all this from a professional. A eye surgeon in fact!
Jenna thanks where can i get fish oil pills from?
Jenna I hope ur okay I mean u shouldnt be going to school it’s corona various
Cassandra Elena that was a while ago😂
Wow your different camera angles and different locations during explaining are out of the box, you are such a genius in video making too.
I'm 49 now and have struggled with Blepharitis since I was a kid. After trying everything over the years I finally discovered a very successful and simple routine that changed my life a decade ago. This is what I do: I have a warm/hot shower every morning and after several minutes in the steamy wet air I take an (eye dedicated) facecloth soaked with only warm shower water (no soap) and use my index finger to perform gentle tiny circular scrubs in both a clockwise and counter-clockwise direction along both the bottom and top lids, pulling the lids open slightly with my free hand. This has done wonders for for me ever since. I now feel much more awake in the morning, where before my eyes wanted to stay shut and felt thick and would battle getting styes. I also add to this the warm compresses almost every evening for 10 minutes with a microwaveable eye gel mask and often rinse my eyes using a small cup over the sink with warm (not hot) tap water to clear any cloudy excretions or debris and I'm set. My eyes lids are no longer pink, crusty or swollen (unless I miss a day or two). Seriously, no medications or expenses. Sometimes the answers are right in front of us and can be part of other routines. Try for a week and see for your self!
So glad you're better, thank you for these simple, easy tips!
*Really* appreciate your detailed, comprehensive, effective instructions. I have dry eye and blepharitis, but no ophthamologist I've visited has told me exactly how to massage or clean my eyelids. Neither have their nurse-assistants--which is actually their job, right? And a lot of people don't know that they can get information like this from a pharmacist, at least where I live (USA). Thanks for a very helpful video!

It’s 6 in the morning and my alarm goes off in a hour. Got school today and I’m here sitting on my bed with a face cloth dripping water down my neck 😂
Jenna Whelan I feel your pain I always have an infected eye I’m trying to fix I’m starting to annoy meh 😥
😂

out of sudden, my right eyelid started hurting and when I blink as well it hurts, I applied hot towel on it for 3-6 minutes. Everything went back to normal. Thank you so much
Glad I could help!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist ❤👊🏻
For years I thought this was normal!!! I’m so happy I started researching and came across your video, you and your information are very appreciated ❤️🔥
You are so welcome!

Brilliant, clear video (even with only one fully working eye!) Currently being treated for a corneal ulcer and the hospital doctor has told me to do warm compresses and massage on my eye, hence my finding this video :)
Glad I could help and sending awesome vibes!
I have been looking for full guide on this for ages so nice explained thank you
Thanks for commenting, glad you found it helpful :)
Tip, use your ring finger as it is the weakest so you don't apply to much pressure.
Gail Honadle omg thanks for this tip
Yes , I also use my ring finger to apply concealer under my eyes . It’s the most gentle way .
Thank you so much !

Try warm water vapour from bowl of hot water with towel over head. The vapour enters the oil glands and heats the oil directly. Then massage eyelids after.
I then clean lid margins just below lashes with cotton bud soaked in eye wash saline solution.
thank you! I'm an optometrist and I find it very helpful for my patients
You're welcome thanks for commenting and showing to your patients 👌
Faiz Faris I keep getting the styes should I go to the doctor. What would they do ?
I tried soaking my eyes twice per day in a water salt solution. About 30 seconds per soak. It helped. I tried a dry compress twice per day. I was meticulous in using an eyelid cleanser twice per day. It helped. But what appeared to accelerate the style removal was ... crying. No kidding.
I watched a “tear-jerker” movie and I was streaming tears. When I woke up the next day, I noticed my style and the irritation almost gone. Over the next three days, I induced crying and my stye (which I had for about two months) was completely gone.
I still practice good eye hygiene.
What do you mean you soaked your eye in salt water ? How?
@@mrjsmitty555 yeah that sounds painful
Along with the suggestions given then, ill watch a tear jerker movie later as well!
Looked back for a moment and thought it was a ghost 😂
This is the best guide on youtube by far!!!! Ive been looking for a full guide like this for the past month thank you so much
Thank you :) Tried my best to include all the steps of eyelid hygiene :)
Been searching all over for an actual proper guide on this, FINALLY found a real one! Please keep making videos Abraham I love them so much
Thanks for commenting, glad I could help 😀Will keep them up, hope you like my new video, it will go live later today 4PM GMT
I had a stye for a year now for both eyes i tried so many things also want to the doctor but nothing work ! I think my problem is not trying every day so i'll start now to take care of it and take my time. Thank you for the vidéo i like your positive energy 😉

Over thirty years I have had several chalazions -- I don't remember ever hearing the name. These were surgically treated in the doctor's office. NOBODY ever told me that they might be caused by these microorganisms(?). Nobody ever mentioned massage. They mentioned dry eyes. They told me about hot packs but nothing about massage. It's only recently I figured out a good way to do hot packs -- I buy a pack of those round cosmetic pads. I pick up three to make a thicker pad. A pot of boiled water is on the side of the sink. I set a timer for 5-10 minutes and I hang over the sink. I dip a washcloth into the hot water and hold it on the pads over my eye -- this way, I never remove the cosmetic pads, just re-wet the water. With the radio playing, time passes. Usually the water stays very hot for more than five minutes. I may add that at the beginning when the water is just boiled and very hot, I hold the cloth NEAR my eye and can feel the heat there. I just don't touch the eye/cosmetic pads with that boiling water. It takes a minute for it to get to the right temperature.
It’s working! Thank you so much. My pain is going away very fast.

I developed a nasty stye just this week and I'm going to try these 3 steps. Wish me luck!
Has it helped?
@@tonylucidi6343, yes sir. Thanks!
Thanks for your video! I've had blepharitis for a while. I have been doing the warm wet compreses, then use a Q-tip wet and wipe the lids. It helps a lot!
Thanks for sharing!
I have Blepharitis and I take Omega 3 everyday, its does help. After me and my dr experiemented with varies eye drops. My eye drops are now refresh with flaxseed oil. Also, my dr has 2 procedures to help with the blockage in my eyes. Will keep you posted with how it goes.

I think Morfields are a good hospital, maybe you got unlucky with your optometrist
Hi Abraham,
My dry eye 'syndrome' came on really bad after several factors:
1. I used a face wash which seemed to have a real drying effect on the eyelids and even caused them to look 'old-age' wrinkled.
2. I had to start wearing masks because of the legal requirement and what I noticed was that the air was rushing between the gap is in the upper part of the mask and my face. Sadly even with careful placement as advised by health professionals, air still escapes in front of the eyes.
3. I have to work in a cool dry environment with an over enthusiastic HVAC system (have done for many years) but the combination of the above two points may have tipped my eyes over the edge.
At the start of the week my eyes are fine(-ish) but midweek I feel like my eyes have had acid in them, and the level of bloodshot and the amount of tears streaming means I've had to take days off just to recover.
I'm gonna try your tips from today and I've started to take Seven seas cod liver oil capsules (primarily to help a dislocated finger recover - the Omega 3 may help my eyes too.) Needless to say I will be gunning for my 8 hours of sleep.
Anywhoo, thanks for the tips. I'll try and leave a reply to tell you how I got on.
Oh thank goodness, I thought I was just sick after doing this my eyes feel so much better!
Glad I could help
Got the result w/in 15 mins. My eye went back to normal, thank you so much!

This is very useful Abraham, I always recommend patients to do a warm compress will be showing them your video from now on 👍
Thanks for commenting, that's great to hear :)
Thank you so much, I was just prescribed this treatment and was doubtful about it, but hearing it from you reconfirms it’s for me. I have dry eye.
Glad I could help
Thank you for this, I've just started the heated bag treatment on the advice of a private optician I've started to go to. I need to wear contact lenses for a cornea condition I have, but dry eye and blepharitis is limiting comfort time. I had forgotten how to do the massage so this helps.

Thanks for the video, wanted to check whether I am doing massage the right way. An ophthalmologist told me to take specifically flax seed oil, so trying that now.
Thanks for sharing!
You're such a cute and positive person, and you inspire me to become a healthy person too. Btw 3:30 was hilarious 💛
Thanks for commenting, glad to hear my videos inspire you :)
I usually fill half a cup with boiling water and I let it cool down a bit so that it does not burn my skin. Then I place it in contact with the closed eye and I keep it there for a couple of minutes, until I feel that my eye starts to get moist. In this way I don't spill water over myself and I can keep the eye warm for longer.
This is the first time my eye got red and I needed this
Glad my tips helped!
I heard about taking supplements and so I tried Fish Oil tablets and after a few days it definitely decreased my symptoms of my blepharitis. And when I quit taking them it got worse. I need to check out the eyelid hygiene too though.
I do the eyelid hygiene and it's still terrible so maybe I should try what you have with the supplements
Alexa Galbreath - I also found two more things that have helped: 1.very hot shower running on my eyes and then washing with soap and rinsing very hot
2.eyelid massages throughout the day. It (apparently) gets the oil glands flowing
With that said; my issues aren’t cured/gone. But definitely improved.
Just wondering if I can use cetaphil cleanser instead of baby shampoo to clean my eyes? Thank-you for this video!
So helpful. Thank you. Do you think Blepharitis is a side effect of eye drops for eye hypertension?
Thank you. I have this problem due to Sjogren's syndrome, and I've never heard of the eye massage. I think this will help.

Hi please am in need of help.. My one eye is with blood any help please?
Personally I have blepharitis and I have acutally had it for 3 or 4 years, I went to multiple doctors, walk in clinics, but one night my eyes were driving me CRAZY. nothing was open so we had to go to the ER and they set me up with a appointment with a eye surgeon because they had no clue what was up either! They all told me it was dry eye syndrome and it would let go with time. Luckily my mom used to be a pharmasist and now works a different job with other trained professionals, one day I had to take the day off school it was so bad and my mom ended up telling her co worker, Justin, about it. He said that all the eye drops I had been using were WRONG. turns out alot of artificial tears (OTC) have perservatives in them that could irritate the eye further. he suggested Hydrasense PERSERVATIVE FREE and seal oil pills. worked like a dream! I take them daily now. but of course now that its finally cleared up I learned last month I have blepharitis with the eye surgeon...
In conclusion, I had blepharitis for 4 years and all the doctors in my town were idiots and didnt know what it was until I finally found the way to relieve it and THAN found a doctor that knew what she was at. also im 15 and blepharitis is more commone in 50 year olds so pretty much my eyes are 50. Thats how that works.
Since its cleared up, do you still need to take the pills?
@@shekinahrf I’ve noticed over time that they have never really cleared up, but just gotten easier. From time to time, my eyes act up and I do take them, but most days it’s fine. For example today I did take them. Also, another thing to take into consideration that I’ve thought about sense I wrote this is that it seems to get worse during the winter/colder months. I live in Canada, meaning the air gets really dry in the winter, so maybe that could be part of it? I don’t know, but I’m going to see my eye surgeon next Monday, so I will let you know what else I learn!
@@Jenna-qp1bf Thanks so much! After seeing your comment I've done some research into presercative free eye drops, so I'm going to try that. Ive had irritation for about two weeks now - and I've only been told to do massages because my eye pores are clogged... didn't even know this was a thing. Please let me know how you get on!
Omg bro thanks definitely leaving a like I’m watching this after my eye i finally healed I can now watch this video with 2 eyes 😂🥰

I have had dry eyes and Blepharitis for years as well as Glaucoma and short-sight and had cataracts in both eyes,now removed but baby shampoo can irritate the eyes of some people,one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda in one pint of warm water can be better as an eye lid wipe for those that find that baby shampoo irritates their eyes,nevertheless,a good,informative video.
Wonderfully and systematically explained. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I would like to ask for make up having blepharitis. I wish to hear advices, I love to do it but I am afraid to get worse. Thanks !
Thank you bro
Any time
My right upper eyelid is the only one that is red and swollen. It was diagnosed that it was blepheritis, and the doctor prescribed an ointment for me to apply under my upper eyelid and along the lash line. I’ve been doing warm compresses, and doing the ointment but my eyelid doesn’t really seem to be responding. How long does it take for my eyelid to return back to normal?
I have chalazion and hot compress is one treatment so this video help me a lot. Thanks you
Well explained in short period time. Thanks a lot. God Bless you.

Hi. Do you think putting castor oil in the eyes is a good idea? I had dry eyes for years and I want to try castor oil. I read that it helps. What are your thoughts about this?
Would like to know the other ways of cleaning the eyelids, too, not just baby shampoo which I do not have around here and want to start this asap. Thx
Hi thanks for this
I recently got diagnosed with this today but thebeye doctor ojly told me to do the first two steps and not the cleaning part
Would the first two steps still help cleaning?
Thank you for this video you were clear and concise

thank you my man, optometrist let me know about my glands yesterday
Glad I could help
One thing not mentioned in this video are the TYPES OF EYEDROPS you use. This was advice given to me from a PROFESSIONAL.
I got blephritis about 5 years ago, just recently got diagnosed. But one thing that I was told by a EYE SURGEON was that many artificial tears/lubricants have preservatives in them that can further irritate your eyes. I was recommended Hydrasense PRESERVATIVE FREE eye drops. They work like a dream and I find they help for longer periods of time.
Bonus: I was also told this by a pharmacist; taking omega pills also help. I’ve been taking seal oil daily and I find that helps almost better than the eye drops! Would 100% consider it!

Sir,While cleansing you've mentioned we shouldn't wipe the inner margins , im confused 🤔cause after massage all the oil squeezes out in those margins right behind eyelashes line right?
I am struggling with something similar that has definitely affected my confidence for the past year or two. I did unfortunately happen to have a chalazion each on both eyes. Seeing as I only had it checked rather than treated originally I thought it went away naturally (seeing as I was told that this could happen) because it visibly dissapeared. However lately I noticed that actually it never went away. It definitely flattened and is gladly just a soft portion of tissue at the upper edge of my eyelids rather than the bump I used to have directly on top of it. However it is also the reason why I feel huge discomfort in my eyes if I happen to rub them and does quite noticeably change my overall appearance which Im definitely not happy about. Would this treatment help in my case seeing as I've had this for the past year and it hasn't changed or should I aim to save up in order to get it surgically removed? Unfortunately I am studying at university abroad and may not be able to afford it in the near future so any other home remedy would be extremely helpful

Good information 👍👍👍
So nice of you
Two questions : 1. What should be the optimum temperature of the heated washcloth to be both effective for liquifying the meibum and not harmful to the ocular surface?
2. How long should the warm compress be done in a single session?
Soumalya Sinha maximum 5 minutes and do two times in a
day
Temperature should be warm enough (not hot) that your fingers should be comfortable.
This is such a wonderful video - thank you so much for making such a upbeat and informative video!

What about Artificial Tears? How do they help?
And in what order in this treatment do they fit in?
Thank you very much for the great information!

Is it safe to do this 4 weeks after cataract surgery? Doc said SWIM has severe dry eye and blocked duct. He didn't specify what duct. He recommended warm compress but from my own research I've found SWIM can benefit from warm compress along with eyelid massage. Is it safe to gently massage eyelid 4 weeks post op? Thx for any input.
Thanks for the informative video!! I just have this teledoctor thing and he just told me "do warm compress" So I came here hahaha THANKS
