A member asked:

Can eyeglass cleaner with isopropyl alcohol cause eczema on the eyelids?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely.: See a dermatologist. It is unusual to get eczema on your eyelids, so it should be thoroughly investigated. A rash from topical products would not be eczema. Instead it would be a contact dermatitis.
