🔴Eye Health QOTD: Lid scrubs or hypochlorous acid better? Have you tried any of theses products?
Eye floaters: how to get rid of black spots
I've tried both! I don't have blepharitis but I like to try different options so I know sort of what it's like for my patients to use them!
Hi Doc!
I am 66 and have recently began using both (about a week) to avoid having my eyelid scraped again...not a pleasant procedure.
I have been trying to do warm moist compresses at least twice daily and thorough washings with soap. It seems to almost clear up, but never quite goes away.
My eye Doc said I would not be able to scrub my way out of this problem and he appears to be right. After I had the eye scrape procedure on the lower lid, I cleaned my eyelids and used warm compresses regularly, but the infection reappeared on my upper eyelid - despite the daily cleansing routine.
So I have bought the eye wipes and the spray HypoChlor, hoping that the combination will help.
Additionally, I am on an antibiotic for a bladder infection ( Cephalexin) 4 days now - maybe all the combinations will help. Though I don't think I will be able to avoid another eyelid scraping...Alas.
I use the scrubs and will try the spray
Can using castor oil on your eyelashes cause Blepharitis? Even tho castor oil is said to be non pore clogging.
I used the microwavable mask and the Ocusoft spray diligently 2-3 times a day and my major symptoms were gone in 4 days. I still do it 2-3 times a week as a maintenance measure. Great advice Doc and the passion and enthusiasm are contagious. Only wish my GP had the same attitude!
Same and agree totally
Mine told me I just had dry eyes and not to come back for a year!
Which mask do you use ? Thanks
Which eye mask?? I am diagnosed with Blepharitis. Dr. What soap do you recommend.
I use one made by Optase. Totally love it.@@marimykytka2398
I've been getting chronic blepharitis for the past three years on and off. It's all about having a hygiene routine to keep your eyelids clean. I use the ocusoft cleansers morning and night, and use the heat pad occasionally. I also use thera tears for my dry eyes once a day as well.
I did same, not working, into emergency often....
@Stateless. You're very lucky that it's blepharitis and not Sjogren's Syndrome. It's a lot harder to have the immune system attacking the tear glands 100% of the time with no relief than it would be to have blepharitis. The worst part for me was when I was misdiagnosed as having blepharitis instead of Sjogren's Syndrome. I ended up in the ER in excruciating pain from the ointment that's used for blepharitis!! I use Restasis drops every day. The only brand of artificial tears that I can use is Thera Tears, but I have to use the vials- not the bottle. If I accidentally put my finger on the tip of the bottle, I can easily get an infection. That did happen to me. That was a nightmare because my eyes DON'T tear when I get anything foreign in them. It took a month for my eyes to get better. I had to have other people lead me around because it was too painful for me to open my eyes. NO ONE can possibly know what I'm going through every day with my immune system attacking my tear glands 100% of the time unless they go through it themselves.
I am suffering this from childhood... It's has been more than 12 years and I am still suffering from it.... Tried every treatment
Testifying about odige Oyas on UA-cam is the great joy I have ever had in a while because, this man transformed my life in all rammification. Thank you doctor for putting an end to my illness called blepharitis and Putting a smile on my face 😊

SO MUCH HELP. Thank you. I’m a makeup artist and have been suffering badly from bad blepharitis.
So happy to help!
Are you able to use any eye makeup? I'm having a hard time finding anything that doesn't cause a flare.
EDIT: It Cosmetics Super Hero Mascara has been the only thing I've found that does not cause a flare. Still looking for more products, will keep anyone updated if I find anything else.
@@katelynnova2537 any eyeliner?
@@katelynnova2537 really, i haven’t used makeup in a year because im scared. so we actually can?
Clean those brushes often!
I started with GPC which led to Blepharitis. Treated with Pataday, xiidra, and lotemax. Now in control with nightly lid cleaning and warm compresses.Made my dry eye better and more comfortable contacts. Eyelid inflammation is no fun.
Thank you for sharing your story! I see GPC pretty often.
did Xiidra help with MGD? Thought it was only for Aqueous dry eye.
Johnson’s baby shampoo will get rid of demodex mites and their debris of dandruff on eyelash roots. It doesn’t sting the eyes. Many doctors prescribe cleaning with it. Swim in chlorine pools 3 times a week for 3 months. Or salt water beaches.
Waking up feeling like there's glass in your eye
Ouch...I hope there isnt...
Former Things exactly! It’s so damn frustrating
You might have oxalates in your eyes. I suffered for years and didn't get any relief until I changed my diet. Most chronic ailments have their source inside the body. Most doctors will just tell you blepharitis can't be cured, only managed. Not true.
@@TerriblePerfection what did you changed in your diet ?
@@ogun9645 You won't like my answer, but I started to eliminate possible problem foods. I had already eliminated sugar, but then I gave up wheat and dairy. When I read that histamines and oxalates can be problematic, I eliminated those too. What really jump-started the healing was a three-day fast, followed by the strict new diet. What keeps me going is the result: relief for the first time in years. I now eat some goat and sheep milk products without a problem. I think you have to find your own solution, and I don't discuss it with other people, who find it extreme and implausible. Trust your body! Good luck.
OM FRIKKIN GOD.I just cleansed my lids with hypochlorous spray last night. I do lid hygeine before bed.warm compress and lid massage. Today i have zero dry eye because of using this spray. I'm amazed at the difference AND last night was my first time.
That's great to hear Gerald!!! Really great news!
@@DoctorEyeHealth it's an epic product, literally saved my life!!
So do you use the eye clense every night?
I have been suffering for more than a month. Could you please tell me the spray you used.
doctors they know nothing about nutrition, blepharitis is caused by a deficiency of vitamin A , take vitamin A, 2400 mcg once a day in 2 or 3 days you should get relieve, vitamin a builds up in the body so with time blepharitis will disappear
Love this doctor! I use the lid scrubs, they are pricey so what I do is cut the cloth in half, I feel that the cloth is still large enough to do both eyes effectively
I just recently found out that I have Blepharitis after years of eye pain and not knowing what to do. I use the OcuSoft wipes and after 4 days I stopped getting pain I wipe my eyes twice a day (eye doctors instructions). After 22 years I can finally see like a normal person! Baby shampoo on a soft clean sponge also works wonders! I HIGHLY recommend the Ocusoft wipes though, they're amazing, no more waking up/ going outside with my eyes stinging!
So it doesn’t work right away? I just purchase them a day ago and my eyes are still burning from the dry eyes and I’m wondering if it takes a while for them to work or to remove build up?
THE
Hypochlorous acid is good for chronic eye swelling caused by blepharitis. I no longer have any symptoms, but I still have the swelling.
SOrry to hear that. For the swelling, you would do best talkin with your local eye care provider for medication.
I had INSTANT Relief with the Pro pads. 🙏💯
nice! I like the pro version best myself.
I tried it just 5 minutes ago but I cleaned eyelids from inside and I think i got some of the solution on my eyes (I used the pads) and hope I wont die or go blind...
oh lord are u ok
Thank you so much, I have developed this problem only recently, I'm 50, and I went to Walmart and bought the " OCuSOFT " LID SCRUB ORIGINAL pads and they have worked like a God send. Thank you so much again, and I'm following your instructions to the T I haven't tried the acid spray yet because the pads seem to be working extremely well, but I will get some if the pads fail to work as well in time.
this hottie making me feel like my eye nonsense is finally acknowledged!!
I really appreciate these videos! I've had blepharitis for over two years, and it took me awhile to get a handle on it. Advice from others suffering from it has been my best defense. My new optometrist has been helpful in affirming my methods to be working. An allergy doc gave me the idea of using John Paul Mitchell shampoo on my lids when I shampoo in the shower. It is refreshing, but must be careful not to get inside the eye! I also use Ocusoft lid scrub Plus which is a leave-on formula wipe in the evenings. When I'm having a flareup, I also use cliradex eye wipes, which also comes in a foaming cleanser form. Both are effective for me. It is all expensive, which is sad. Since warm eye compresses have also helped when I see swelling begin, I'll be getting one of the microwave eye masks. I'm also going to try the hypochlorus spray that this doctor suggests. Why did I not think to seek info here first? This eye condition is a tough one to manage, so thought I'd toss my two cents into this feed. Good luck, everyone!

@@LGAussie I appreciate your input. Baby shampoo is where I began too. Long term it was not effective for me, but I'm happy if it works for others!
do you get any tears while crying or cutting onion?
I struggled with this problem for years. My eye doctor recommended the eye scrubs. Nothing helped. Not until I found out I had a hypothyroid condition. Once the thyroid hormone levels were right (it took two years of slowly increasing my Synthroid prescription) the dry eye problems went away.
Very Interesting!!! Thyroid conditions are related to dry eye, primarily it can be due to proptosis and exposure issues, but there is also an issue where the autoimmune cells attack the lacrimal gland and cause inflammation, which can shut down the tear production.
I like the enthusiasm of this wonderful doctor, the clarity with which he explains eyelid hygiene.
I've been visiting several eye doctors since last ten years but no one ever told me about blepharitis...
They just kept prescribing different kinds of Lubrication eye drops, never mentioning the need for eyelid hygiene..
I just now used my regular gentle soap, diluted it with water and thoroughly washed my eyes, and bingo !! So much relief suddenly .
God bless this amazing doctor 🙏🙏🙏❣️❣️❣️
My ophthalmologist has me using 1:9 baby shampoo & water. I wet a washcloth and put a drop of baby shampoo. Works great, no irritation. The washcloth is very effective to scrub.
and did you see any mention of using easy and cheap to get baby shampoo on the eyelids? Nope...
Where have you been al of my life!!! ❤️❤️👌👌 thank you
I was just diagnosed with this 1st time yesterday at age 49 during my annual eye exam. Purchased the entire treatment kit along with picking out a new pair of readers. All along I thought I had used a tube of bad mascara so I had stopped using mascara and just use eyeshadow. Looks like during my eyelid treatment I'll be avoiding mascara. Informative great video on the condition.

I've used the scrubs and they work, but the pad feels kind of scratchy on my eyelid skin. I also feel the pads are more expensive than they should be. When I use up what I have I will try the spray and the foam. I've also used warm compresses.
Blepharitis diagnosis many years ago. Baby shampoo and hot compresses didn't work. Prescribed Oracea time release doxycillin. $30/month for years. Company hiked monthly price to over $600, so discontinued it. Ophthalmologist never mentioned demodex mites. Bought Cliradex wipes 3 weeks ago and my lids and eyebrows feel much cleaner. Also have rosacea, well treated with yellow sulfur soaps. Thanks for your video.
My eyes have been red, swollen. I had bought these and forgotten I had them. The optometrist examined my eyes thoroughly. He said allergies. I used these today and will continue. They made my eyes feel relieved.

I hate it ppl always think I’m on drugs 😢😢😢😢😢😢
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG, I was having this problem, ordered the product and used it...omggggggggggggggg, it helped instantly!! I was skeptical because my eyelids felt dry, like it needed moisture from a cream not an acid! But let me tell you..it works!!! Thanks Doc!
Thank you, really helpful, much better explanation than from my ophthalmologist. I will try Blephaclean eye pads and Chamomilla tea warm compresses.
These lid scrubs did literally nothing but make my eyelids more red and inflammed
colloidal silver, only thing thats worked for me
@@jomelizm cool how did you use that?
Sorry to hear that, perhaps your doctor could recommend something better for you.
Try nizoral shampoo. Wash your hair and once foamed close your eyes and apply foam to eyelids. Keep on for about 2 mins then rinse. I've had since I was about 13. Has been the worst 😫. But nizoral works.
@@jonathanmcrae3728 do you have MGD ? Does it help with that ? My eye dr. just said use
ocusoft scrubs, heat and he also prescribed Doxycycline., which doesn't agree with me
and i had to stop them.messed up my bowl movements.(if you know what i mean).
I have ketoconazole, (prescription for hair, it's 2%) I tried that on my eyleds awhile ago.
I'm not positive, but i think it was irritating.
I hate when optimized recommend baby shampoo. It burns soooo much. I only use 1% hydrocortisone on blepharitis and that seems to work if used every other day. ☹️☹️ Hate having this!
How often can u use a warm compress on the eyes?
I’ve been dealing with this for several years. I just left and ophthalmologist and he told me what it was and how to treat it. Thanks for this video
How did he say to treat it tho? Johnson’s baby shampoo will get rid of demodex mites and their debris of dandruff on eyelash roots. It doesn’t sting the eyes. Many doctors prescribe cleaning with it.
Good information but the music was rather distracting. We appreciate what he shared though.
I'm using antibiotic drops since 6 months doctor for dry eyes but still I feel blurry vision on my left eye and I use artificial tears
Same thing is happening to me in my left eye with dry eyes.
long time to be on an antibiotic ! person replied below they took Cod liver oil
Using a Qtip and baby shampoo to scrub one’s eyelids works too.
I've been diagnosed with it today, in fact, the optician said I have three different conditions, the Blepharitis has caused Conjunctivitis and one of my lower lids has turned outwards. She said, that if it doesn't rectify itself in the next couple of weeks, then she will have to refer me to the hospital for an operation. She didn't say what would have caused the bottom lid on one of my eyes to turn outwards.

do you get any tears while crying or cutting onion?
you are such a really good and soft Speech doctor,,and thanks for more information for eye sight.
So...did I understand you correctly, in that the remedies for anterior and posterior blepharitis are the same? Cleaning your eyelids?
Cleaning the eyelids is really important for anterior bleph, and bad anterior bleph can contribute to posterior bleph. But posterior bleph also has other causes.
Thank you for your videos. I have a dermatologist appointment coming up, but I been scared with covid. But I don't have a cough or flu or anything. But it's nice to have something to help until my appointment. I think my eye lid might be infected. But I just needed to hear knowledgeable videos. It helps a lot.
I don't have covid. But I meant is I felt nervous from the pandemic.
Definitely excited to try the wipes! I just use a qtip and baby tear free soap rn.
Yeah! There are many wipes on the market now. Ocusoft Plus is my favorite from that brand, otherwise TearRestore makes HylaWipe and even Eyes Are the Story makes a good wipe too.
This is hell living with this we want a cure i can't believe it this day of Age we don't have a cure for this
In really bad cases a prescription medication is the best way to go.
Can you speak to seborrheic blepharitis? I have difficulty finding treatment. Recently I discovered Vanicream with Pyrithione Zinc 2 % shampoo which i use on my head and eyebrows. This surprisingly really improved my severe dry eye by 50 percent. I suspect I have been reinfecting my eyes when I shampoo with regular shampoo. Your opinion? I did also discover a journal article on Seborrheic blepharitis which said it was under-diagnosed. I would like to learn more.
Hey thank you for asking! I agree too, that seborrheic blepharitis is underdiagnosed. It is something often seen, but sadly it kinda gets brushed under the rug in a lot of healthcare settings. Not that it isn't a big deal, but blinding eye diseases often trump it, along with other dermatological issues or ocular surface diseases. For a lot of people, proper eyelid hygiene does the trick, it sometimes takes awhile to find the right treatment (trying different eyelid washes/scrubs). Some people need antibiotics and/or steroid creams. There are some publications on using dandruff shampoos on the eyebrows and eyelashes but from what I can remember off the top of my head, it was diluted in those studies for fear of eye irritation or fear of causing damage to the oil glands. I will see if I can find that study again and try to get back to you. Either way, happy to hear it has helped your dry eye so much.
Vitamin C 1,000mg daily helps too.
After watching your videos I realize I need a new Eye Dr. He has told me that it will take 6 months and I am halfway through that but I am not feeling any better. He also never gave me the information that you have given me. So, can you tell me where to find a Dr that is in NYC and deals with these problems.
Thank you Sir.
You are most welcome!
He’s low key fine
I need Ocusoft Lid Scrub -
My ophthalmologist/neurologist never really told me about the sprays he did tell me about the wipes but he said the sprays wouldn't work and if there's nothing you can do to condition the eyelid which is what I thought would help. He just told me to alternate warm and cold compresses and to use these eyelid scrubs which I didn't really care for the kind of rubbed up my eyes and made them worse so I think I tried to use Cetaphil face cleanser and just using my fingertips cleaning around my eyelids and by the eyelashes but he just told me that this is something you get as you get older like there was nothing I could do about it. I'm glad that you suggest all these products and things to be used. I also have optic neuritis which the doctors can't figure out how I got but they tested me for Ms and I tested negative so now I'm just on medication to lower my immune system. I'm blind in my right eye and my left eye has decreased vision. I'd like to ask if these products are safe to use on eyes with optic neuritis? Thank you
Hey thanks for asking. In general, optic neuritis has nothing to do with eyelid health or blepharitis, but in terms of what is best for you, you should ask your local eye doctor. Wish you the best

The single use whiles are great they have helped me with dry skin and keeping my kids clean I need to try the other kid cleaner. My eyes seem to be so red and puffy lately I can’t even wear makeup anymore it just sets my eyes off in to a reaction and red puffiness. But the whites and the microwaveable compress helps so much great video so informative. 😊
Bobbie Loves Beauty years ago when I wore eye makeup, I found eye shadow irritated my eyelids, so if it happens when you use eye makeup, maybe it’s that?
Thanks so much for your advice I’ll look for the eyelid scrubs at my chemist 👍I’ve also heard about the warm compresses too . I use Optex eye drops for my itchy eyes . (In Australia)It has witch hazel in it which keeps it under control. I have to have Dupixent injections for my severe eczema so it causes bletharitis. I had just dry eyes for years but it’s turned into itchy sore eyes now so the normal eye drops don’t work anymore

Will doing warm compress to eye lids dry out my already dry eyes 👀!?
The best warm compress supply moist heat. So they feel good and the warm compress should open up the oil glands of the eyelid, helping prevent your tears from evaporating.
Thanks for this video. Very informative.
Thank you for the video! Would you mind sharing which heat pack you really like? There are a lot of options and it can get confusing knowing which one to go with. Thank you!
The Bruder Moist Heat Eye Mask is the most popular and works great. The Optase mask is excellent as well. It is wise to use a folded bathroom tissue between your eyes and the mask during their use. They will stay hygienically cleaner that way. They are also washable when necessary. When it comes to dry eyes, the routine is "Heat, Cleanse, & Hydrate".
How do you differentiate between blepharitis and ocular rosacea?
So, just cleansing, and it will go away? What causes the need for cleansing? Are there dietary changes that can prevent it?
is their a cure? this is so annoying, it won’t go away
I’ve had this for 10 yrs now straight without doing anything about it everyday for 10 yrs I’ve woke up in a bad condition
How bad is this?
lol
Same here!!! 9 years for me. It’s absolute hell. It used to be just morning waking up was rough, now at night my eyes get all goopy and crusty it sucks.
@@collinclark4093 same bro at night it gets bad aswell
I have angular type. My doctor told me it was due to my 60ish age sagging eyelisd,mechanically blocking those ores you talked of and cannot do much to prevent. I read and do diligently was my eyelis, albeit not with your products.
Great video. I learned a lot and now I don’t need to see a doctor. Thanks.
My eyes feel so much better after this home treatment..BUT ..the inflamation hasnt gone away..my eyelids have been chronically inflamed for so long. Will this go away with time? Thank you. :-)
Is it possible to have blepharitis without irritation and particles in eyelashes? I have constant redness on the bottom section of my upper eyelids but they aren’t constantly irritated.
what is your opinion on castor oil for dry eyes?
I have blepharitis and tried this spray for 2 weeks and sprayed 2 times a day and this did nothing for me.
hi just wondering is it possible to completely cure this? Also is it possible to wear makeup again?? it’s so painful and this video is very helpful thank you!
I do have chronic red burning eyes so the eye doctor gave me KETOROLAC OPHTH 0.4% to take 2 times a day then through it out. He diagnosis it to be an allergic reaction to the air. I just started yesterday 11/9, let see if it does the good yes? Anyways i love your programs and informative info. you share. So appreciated! THANKS ❤🎉😊
Thanks Doc! I’m going to get some now.😊
How often should one use the lid scrub and the hypochlorous acid? And during what time of day?
Both are safe to use daily, however hypochlorous acid can be recommended more frequently based on your doctor discretion.
Thanks so much great advice 😊
What happens when the glands are already gone? How do you treat it? Is it possible to induce your body to produce oils again?
Just found your channel and you have helped me so much. Thanks
How many times a day should I use a compress? Should i clean my eye every time i use a compress to stop the oils reclogiing the gland.
I appreciate your great detail on what it is and how to remedy it. Thank you for your detailed information. Do you have any natural remedies you can recommend?
What do you think of Medical Grade Manuka Honey?
Thanks doc for the info
I get blepharitis so bad, It makes one entire eye go black and swollen, as if I have been hit in the eye. Eye hygiene with wipes has helped.

I was told I have blepharitis. I prefer the spray with the thin pads it comes with. I also use the microwavable eye mask twice a day. I also use preservative free drops. I go to a corneal specialist but because of the covid 19 I haven’t seen him in a while

How important is it to rinse as opposed to just drying well after using the wipes?
I have a question: I've had Blepharitis for several years now, and I used to do that massage everyday (most of the time with my lids pre-warmed) and then wash my eyes with special products (as my eye doctor said), but now the skin on my lids have lost elasticity, and I have kind of hooded eyes all of a sudden when I never did and signs of aging (I'm 26, and that had never happened before). That isn't as bad as the fact that I feel like I gave more space to sebum to stay, so my eyes got more and more swollen and worse, so I stopped doing that massage, now I'm better than I was, but as you can imagine I'm not okay, and I was going to see my eye doctor last month, and the virus hasn't let me, What can I do?
Thank you very much!!
P.S. English isn't my mother language, so sorry if I made any mistake.
I’ve had a localized swelling above both eyes for 8 years. You know those little bean shape things you sometimes feel under your skin, the two above my eyes exploded one day and no one has been able to help me. They told me it’s cosmetic and to live with it. But, at some point, my body recognized something foreign and sent inflammation to that area to protect it. I’m interested in the underlying cause to treat t not a quick bandaid. Any suggestions? I’d love to hear from the couple in the video :)
I have angular type. My doctor told me it was due to drooping ,older eyelids and that little I can do to prevent. I diligentle wash eyes-
Can you have both at the same time?
Eye doctors said Baby shampoo which I do every day yet I wake up with super crusty pasty eyes every morning
Baby shampoo cleans the lashes but you also have to massage the eyelids to squeeze out fluid from the glands.
These videos have been very encouraging - thanks for taking the time to produce and post them. The only OTC product that had been helping was TTO containing I Lid n'lash plus wipes for my blepharitis. Even so, one lower lid (right) was still a prominent problem. I ended up trying topical metronidazole (1% cream) and it has finally cleared things up for me.
I put a very thin layer of cream on the space below the eyebrow (but not on the eyelid), on my eyebrows, and one stroke under the eye (at the bottom of where 'eye bags' would normally be) once a day (AM). I have Ocular Rosacea, with mild impact on my face from time to time (which would be more if I didn't watch my triggers vigilantly). A dermatologist had prescribed the cream to put in a thin layer on the lid lash line in order to treat a very long-standing chalazion. Yes, he warned me not to get it in my eye. (That treatment did not shift the chalazion, by the way). I opted to try the orbital application after reading a case report about a 12 year old child who put topical ivermectin on her peri-orbital area and got good results (that's not something I would try). I've seen a great outcome with my blepharitis within 24-36 hours of the first application and it has been getting better each day. I'll be returning to my derm soon and I'll discuss this application with him. My OR has felt so much better that on two days I forgot to use my restasis in the morning!
do you get any natural tears while crying or cutting onions?
@@medhikasingh6327 Yes, crying does produce tears.
Thank you so much
You're very welcome!
I woke up feeling my eye lids burning
What is the best way to take eye makeup off if you have Bleth.? Tea Tree oil can be very irritating. Would the Ocusoft Plus work? Also, do you suggest using the Ocusoft Plus at night and the spray in the am? Or both together? Thanks!
Do you have a source for microwavable compress that's small enough for the eyes and doesn't have scent or herbs added? Thank you.
Stye makes them
Amazon sell microwaveable heat eye masks ( bead filled kind of eye mask) put in microwave for approximately 1 min, then put the eye mask on eyes for approximately 10 mins or longer, it’s relaxing as well the warmth from the eye mask. They cost only about £12 pounds ( 16 USD dollars) good luck 🤞
I was just diagnosed with Blepharitis, Dr recommended Ocusoft Lid scrubs and warm compress. I bought the Bruner's warm compress you recommeded on other videos. I'm kind of concerned with hygiene of warm compresses. How do you clean the warm compress? Do you hand wash it or you don't, and how often should I clean the warm compress? Thanks!
Should I use the lid scrub and the hypochlorous spray everyday? Or just use one everyday?
Hi Dr
I'm in Australia the eye cleaning kit that you have demonstrated is not available in Australia.
Hi doctor, is it common for patients to have a more severe blepharitis in one eye compared to the other eye? thanks
Yes, one eye can gave it more. Johnson’s baby shampoo will get rid of demodex mites and their debris of dandruff on eyelash roots. It doesn’t sting the eyes. Many doctors prescribe cleaning with it. Swim in chlorine pools 3 times a week for 3 months. Or salt water beaches.
Do you think using apple cider vinegar could be substituted for the spray? I'm using a cotton ball to apply.
