Hello, I have a red line in the outer corner of both eyelids. Ive tried everything-even cortisone cream which seems to make the redness purple. My ophthalmologist said its normal, but it s not for me. I noticed it 6 months ago and I can t get it to go away! What should I do??

Dermatologist 's  Response
The redline is striae rubra. If I were your treating dermatologist I would have given you tretinoin cream0.025%to apply in evening initially for half an hour and then gradually increasing the time upto 2hours. You may also undergo LASER treatment. Consult your dermatologists for LASER treatment if you want.
