Dandruff like scaling on eyelids
I suffer from dandruff like scaling on my eyelids.
I visited a local opthalmologist and he prescribed me to use baby shampoo and Occupol D ointment.
But the problem is persistent even after using it for last 4 months.
Recently I read that this condition is called demodex blepharitis and can be cured by using Blephoclear eye wash.
Please share your experiences in the matter.
