Demodex eyelid care

Care for eyelash and eyelid findings that can resemble dry-eye symptoms.

Demodex and the eyelids

Demodex mites can be associated with eyelid and eyelash inflammation. Symptoms may resemble dry eye, and findings can include collarettes at the base of the lashes or lash loss.

Targeted evaluation and treatment

A magnified examination helps identify these findings. Depending on the examination, care may include eyelid cleaning and medication to manage Demodex-related inflammation.
