This is not harmful: This is most commonly associated with a condition called blepharitis. The best treatment is to wash your eyelashes with shampoo every day. Selenium shampoos may work better than typical shampoos. If this does not work, you should consult your regular physician.

Blepharitis: Your description sounds like blepharitis. Try warm compresses with ocusoft plus lid scrubs twice daily, artificial tears during the day, and ointment at night. If no improvement, see an eye doctor.
