Hello - very dry eyes in the UK and depression
Hi I am based in Cheshire in the uk.
I took accutane over 15 years ago and since then I ve had problems with dry eyes.

Hi Cissou, I had the probing done in Europe. I'd had IPL 4-5 times prior to the probing and had mixed results perhaps as I was blocked and it was just heating the oils underneath the skin (I was not expressed properly after either). It did reduce the visibility of the blood vessels on my lid line (which... -
IPL or wait and try Xiedra / iLux
Hi, I've had MGD dry eyes for so long now. Started when i was around 24, and am now 62. Tested negative for Sjorgrens.

Hi. Parts of your story seem similar to mine. I have had MGD / ocular rosacea / dry eyes since my 13, and am 39 now. Also some of my glands disappeared and some are really squiggly.
Did you ever try doxycycline in your life (for a longer period of time)? It tackles inflammation, bacterial...Leave a comment:

blepharitis - how to improve the appearance
Hi,
I am a 40 year old female. I have MGD and occular rosacea and developed obvious blepharitis two years ago - eyelids (especially right one) are looking puffy, eyelashes are thinned and brittle. Cold compresses are somewhat helpful. I tried IPL without and with expression, Lipiflow... -

I am considering using tea tree oil foam wash and/or wipes, which I understand... -

40 yo female with mgd
Hi all, I have had mgd for a while now (8 years?)...when the doc expresses my glands absolutely nothing comes out!
