A member asked:

I'm treating blepharitis with j & j baby wash! good or bad?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Good: Baby shampoo is well tolerated by the eyes and will help to cleanse the eyelids when you have blepharitis. Warm compresses and eyelid massage will also help. Flaxseed oil by mouth will also help.
