This is a tough one as cortisone is great a reducing the redness. Of late the best treatment for blepharitis is a procedure called BlephEX. I have patients travelling from all around the country for this and most a delighted with the outcome. baby shampoo I do not recommend as it is an irritant. Heat sometimes also is an irritant - both of these treatments are outdated and have been used for a 100 years. Hi Peggy

I use hot packs and scrub bot eyelids with baby shampoo applied with a cotton bud. I also use Cellufresh eye drops. My query is How often should I use the hot pack and cleansing routine and how often should i use the eye drops?
