    Hi Sus28 

    I ordered an EyeSoothe Eye Mask for Blepharitis, just received it a few days ago, so cannot really judge but it was very soothing, it seems to calm everything down and take away the red eye look, so I have my fingers crossed.  Good luck with yours I hope it works.

    Warmest Wishes

    Hi, I don't know about an eye mask, I also have blepharitis, but have not had any symptoms since I started using an eyelid wash every morning and bepanthum cream on my eyelids morning and night.

      i have ocular roscea, in my eyes, not on my face, my doctor said its the same thing as blepharitis, there are 2 types posterior and anterior blepharitis, when i was first diagosned 7years ago, it  was horrid i suffered very badly because my eye doctor at the time said you will be very difficult to treat because you have 3 conditions, dry eye, blepharitis, and rosecae,  i was put on antibitics oraly large dose and eriothmycin ointiment and then a miracle drug A-Z SITE WHICH IS BASICALLY A  SUPER ANTIBIOTIC IN DROP FORM  IT SAVED ME.. THE DOCTOR HAD ME ALSO RUBBING THIS ON THE LID AT THE LASH LINE. IT WAS HARD TO FIND IN PHARMACY BECAUSE IT WAS NEW AT THE TIME  AZA SITE IS A MIRACLE.. SHE TOLD ME TO STOP ANY EYE MAKEUP FOR LIFE.. IT TOOK YEARS TO GET THIS AT BAY SHE WANTED ME DO DO WARM SOAKS AS MANY TIMES A DAY AS POSSIBLE..

    No, when I first went to the doctor, she told me I had conjunctivitis , so I thought that was a waste of time. I started reading about blepharitis on the Internet and read that the ingredient hydroxybenzoate or benzalkonium is the magic ingredient  . I tried baby shampoo and wet ones but it wasn't until I went to the chemist and was put on to the eye wash and then I use Bepanthen cream which has the fixed my eyes. I still use the wash and cream everyday. I live in Australia. If you want to, message me for the exact eye wash I use and the cream

    Hi,

    I bought one online about a year ago.  Forget the name but you put it in the microwave for a few minutes and wear it for about 10 {I think} It was very soothing
