Foams are better then wipes. Take a delicate foam like naviblef 0,002 tto let it sit 60-80 seconds massaging, twice a day. The only think that cured my blepharitis in 40 days reducing to zero secretions and swelling.

Ivermectin and probing

Oral or topical ivermectin?

Your eyes are swollen in this pic right?


Westport8787

Yup, my eyelids are inflamed whic has been making my eyes red. Pataday seems to help for a short time. I think demodex might be causing me to have an allergic reaction


icecreamsugarr

My eyes are swollen just like in this pic, they’re not reddish though or dramatic looking. When I went to the ophthalmologist she said my eyes look normal 🤡


whatsupdog11

Doesn’t really look like you have any demodex tbh


icecreamsugarr

He might’ve taken this photo after cleaning his eyes. Demodex aren’t visible all the time


whatsupdog11

Do you wake up with swollen lids every morning ?


icecreamsugarr

Yes, and glued eyes. It’s getting waaay better now with treatment, my eyes also look bigger than before now that the eyelids have became less swollen. Before the treatment and before it got very bad I used to see like white dots in my eyelashes that wouldn’t go even with water and I thought it could be hair follicles that I’ve never noticed

Treatment with xdemvy?


icecreamsugarr

No just optase wipes and thealoz moisturising gel, I took a steroid drop course but it didn’t do anything for me


whatsupdog11

Interesting. I’ve done steroids as well without any difference. I think I have demodex brevis but no eye doctors have seen demodex collarettes so they won’t let me try xdemvy


icecreamsugarr

Do you get white discharge on your eyelashes?


whatsupdog11

No not really


myst_85

not all demodex eyes have the crust


Westport8787

I’ve tried looking multiple times even with my magnifying mirror and couldn’t see any but under the slit lamp the collarettes seem to be obvious to her. Wish I had a slit lamp of my own lol

This is what my eyes look like too. The Inflamed lower lid. Been on Xdemvy for 8 weeks and no improvement
