What Is Blepharitis?

Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelid. If left untreated, this condition can cause vision issues and other uncomfortable, disruptive physical symptoms. There are many causes of blepharitis, including eyelid hygiene issues, bacterial infection, and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), and our doctors will pinpoint the root of your case during a comprehensive eye exam.

If you’re suffering from blepharitis, you may experience symptoms like, swollen, red, or greasy eyelids; yellow or green discharge; crusty eyelashes and eyelids; and flaky skin around the eye. The effects this condition can have on the eyes and vision include bloodshot, gritty, itchy, and burning eyes, as well as blurry vision and sensitivity to light.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

When the oil-producing glands in your eyelids become clogged, it causes meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). This condition is a major cause of dryness and increases the risk of infection. We offer in-office IPL treatments to unclog these glands, reduce inflammation, and improve tear quality by using light to warm your eyelids and express your natural oils.

MiboFlo

Another MGD treatment we perform in-office that helps prevent eye infection is MiboFlo, also known as Mibo Thermoflo. This 10-minute procedure uses thermal pads to warm your eyelids to allow the necessary oils to flow out, leading to hydrated eyes and better tear retention.

Scleral Lenses

This type of contact lens is better at protecting your eyes from infection more than others. Scleral lenses cover the entire eye’s surface to shield it from bacteria and other harmful contaminants, while locking in healthy moisture with a tear reservoir. Scleral lenses have a host of other benefits, like being great for dry eye and sensitive corneas.
