    blepharitis

    What is blepharitis?

    Blepharitis is the inflammation of the eyelids that occurs due to oily particles and bacteria on the eyelid margin that results in irritation, itching, redness, and stinging or burning of the eyes.

    If the outside of the eyelids is affected it is called anterior blepharitis. If it is not treated, it leads to thickening and inward or outward turning of the eyelids. It affects vision also. If the inner part of the eyelashes is affected it is called posterior blepharitis. It occurs as a result of dysfunction of the eye’s tiny oil glands.

    The bacterial growth over the lids causes blepharitis. Microbes invade the tissues and damage to immune system results because of production of bacterial toxins, enzymes, and waste products. Bacteria grow on the margin of the eyelids in case if there is dysfunction of meibomian glands or in presence of seborrheic dermatitis.
