Inflammation

[Raven93]

If inflammation is the problem, shouldn't we expect to see some relief by taking oral anti-inflammatory agents (like high dose Ibuprofen) before bed?
I know that taking this daily is not a good idea, but just as a way to confirm the cause.

Daily Ibuprofen is definitely not recommended, and probably won't help. Just because its an inflammatory disease does not mean it will respond to any anti-inflammatory drugs. The most effective drugs are typically Azithomycin, Xiidra and Restasis.

''Dry Eye Disease is often complicated by demodex blepharitis. If you don’t look closely it can be overlooked.
My microscope comes in handy for uncovering this and starting treatment. ''
