This is a very common inflammation of the eyelids. It is characterized by a greasy, oily appearance of the eyelids. There is also a recurrent dandruff-like inflammation on the edge of the eyelid. More symptoms may include dry irritated eyes, a burning sensation, itching of the eyelid margins and occasionally loss of eyelashes.
The treatment suggested for this chronic condition is to use a medicated eyelid scrub specifically formulated for these conditions. A daily eyelid scrub is necessary to help remove the crusty flakes along the lash line and help maintain clean and healthy eyelids.
