eyecream and anterior blepharitis?

[jenny2008]

ok.. so now that i have anterior blepharitis can i still use the same eye cream i have always used?? has anyone had any experience with this? i dont know if i should throw it out and buy new... what kind to buy... etc... i wonder if as long as you aren't putting it close to the lash line if it is ok to use eye cream.. my skin around my eyes gets so dry i need something..what do you use?? thanks!!

Anything you put around the eye area may migrate into the eye so it's a good idea to be really careful and maybe have the doctor give a thumbs up or down to specific products. I'm sure there are people here who will have specific recommendations for dry eye friendly creams.

i think i will stick with the one i have been using for about a year now since i never had an issue before.. i know my doc said before that Almay was a good choice as well.. thanks Rebecca.. I went ahead and threw away all eye makeup and creams i had been previously using.. better to be safe than sorry.thanks.
