Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Redness In The Eye When Diagnosed With Blepharitis?
The left side of my right eye has been red for a week sight fine and not in pain. Went to the doc a month ago he prescribed antibiotic drops. Still there 2 weeks later. Went back to doc she said blepharitis. Gave me ointment and tear drops been using them for 2 weeks no difference. Surely blpharitis would be in 2 eyes? Don t know if this is relevant but had lasik 8 years ago. Site went back to pre lasik state 2 years after. Any advise would be welcomed I don t know how to get it white again.
If it was blepharitis the antibiotic drops and ointment should have worked well. I believe it can be allergic cogniuctivitis and you should use Zaditor drops and oral antihistamines.
Also, try to avoid allergens like pollens and dust. Wash eyes with water to remove allergens.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
