What Causes Sore And Red Eyelid?

I have dry cracked, red eye lids, very sore. I don t know what to do. I have been avoiding makeup, but have very fair skin and need to use sunscreen. I also frequently have conjunctivitis. I don t know how to keep them clean without aggravating the lids.

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having sore,cracked eyelids.
These symptoms indicate inflammation of eyelid margin in the form of blepharitis. The recurrent conjunctivitis is because of blepharoconjunctivitis.
This requires treatment by lid scrubs and antibiotics.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.
