Blepharitis is a chronic disorder that leads to inflammation of the eyelids. The disorder impacts the part of eyelid where eyelashes grow. The disease progresses when tiny oil glands near this area are clogged as the clogging leads to irritation and redness of the eyes. Blepharitis is evident with following symptoms: high sensitivity to light, loss of eyelashes, watery eyes, burning sensation in the eyes, greasy eyelids, itchy eyes, red and swollen eyes, flaking of skin around the eyes, crusted eyelashes after waking up, more frequent blinking, abnormal growth of eyelashes, and stinging sensation in the eyes.
Blepharitis is also a cause of seborrheic dermatitis, a dandruff of the eyebrows and scalp. The condition can also lead to bacterial infection, clogged oil glands, malfunctioning of oil glands, and rosacea. Other effects include allergic reactions to eye medications, contact lens solutions or eye make-up and eyelash lice or mites.
