If you have blepharitis, or inflammation of your eyelids, you may wake up with eye irritation or have irritation of your eyelids. Blepharitis is caused by increased bacteria on the eyelids and that's why doctors have recommended lid hygiene.
Unfortunately, there was nothing for them to use but homemade mixtures and dilutions applied with cotton tips and pads, causing stinging and burning, and drying of the delicate eyelid skin.
Now there's a new solution that can help you maintain proper eyelid health. SteriLid Eyelid Cleanser, in a ready-to-use foam, puts all that science has to offer into a gentle-on-the-eye but tough-on-bugs formula designed for lid hygiene. "Bacteria on the eyelid not only cause blepharitis, but also exacerbate dry eye, and these bacteria can cause infections during eye surgery," according to Jeffrey Gilbard, MD, of the Harvard Medical School.
"For this reason I am recommending SteriLid not only for my blepharitis and dry eye patients, but also for all my eye surgery patients beginning three days prior to surgery."
