Blephasol, breakthrough for blepharitis

After suffering blepharitis quite badly on and off for three years, I think I may have found something that actually helps enormously, forget wet ones, they just didn't do the trick after a certain amount of time of using them, has anyone tried blephagel?  It works a hell of a lot better than any of the other gels I have tried, it comes in a nice big tube and is available from your GP on prescription.

I use several blobs of the stuff every morning and night, and believe me it has worked wonders, other things like blephasol and blephasol wipes didn't do the trick, but the gel, that...is...fantastic, I can only recommend that blepharitis sufferers give it a try.

Mainly my eyes are clear now, just a little weepy at times, but only until after I have applied the blephagel, then it eases up, and they are no longer gritty or swollen, this is the stuff to try, I tried wet ones, after two months of some success, they failed to work any more so I was desparate to find something that would help me, just a suggestion but try some blephagel folks, you can't lose anything from giving it a go.

      Are you still using this product?  Did you have any eyelashes falling out?  My whole family has bleph with eyelashes falling out.  Wondering about some kind of bacterial infection.  Looking for something to kill bacteria too.  Would blephasol do that?

    Thanks for your advice. I'd love to know how I can get my hands on this product in Australia? Does anyone know? I've cleared up one eye with the wipes but my right eye still suffers.

      manufacture is in Poland but readily available if you have access to the chemist group Boots . It doesn't sting so you can have a good eyelid /glands scrub then wipe off with pre-boiled water and pop in some Hyabak

       drops ( 3 month  life on the drops once opened and a great bottle that makes the drops easy to apply )

    Hello. I wipe my eyes with wet ones when I wake up and before I go to bed..     about half an hour after I put in my celluvisc eye drops and finally wipe each eye with blephasol (blob) for each eye. This seems to be working for me at the moment. I have had blepharitis since 2014 and this cleaning regime seems to work for me although it took a long time and lots of research to find what worked for me.

    Sorry, i do not know which treatments you could give to children.

    I use both wet ones and blephagel. I ordered blephagel through Amazon and the tube says it was made in France.

    i "wash" my eyelids morning and night with blephagel. During the day I wipe them with Wet Ones. In the middle of the day as time permits I might use Dr Bonner's 18-1 Hemp Tea Tree Pure Castile Soap as eye lash/lid cleaner. (I use Dr Bonner diluted as hand soap) After a couple of months I have seen great improvement!

    I have, I believe all the causes of blepharitis: clogged glands, over abundance of the mites and staph infection. As mentioned by others you have to be consistent and relentless. It could take over 6 months to get back to "normal", whatever that is for each of us.
