What to do about blepharitis

Blepharitis is a purulent inflammation of the eyelid glands, usually caused by a bacterial infection, and can be treated with medication, surgery, or general treatment, depending on the patient’s condition. 1. Medication: Patients with blepharitis need to follow the doctor’s instructions to use antibiotic drugs to control the inflammation and relieve eye discomfort, such as levofloxacin hydrochloride ophthalmic gel, tobramycin ophthalmic ointment and so on. 2. Surgery: If the patient’s eyelid abscess is formed, the effect of drug treatment is not good, the patient can follow the doctor’s instructions to use surgical treatment, that is, when the pus collects to form a fluctuating sense of surgical incision and drainage of pus, and appropriate cleaning of necrotic or granulomatous tissues, to promote the subsidence of abscesses. 3. General treatment: In the early stages of inflammation, patients can be given local hot compresses to promote blood circulation in the eyelids, promote the inflammation to subside, and alleviate the symptoms of eye discomfort. It is recommended that patients with blepharitis consult a hospital in a timely manner to assess their condition and standardize their treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
