A member asked:
I have been diagnosed with lid margin dease,tears deficiency,mucus & mild papillary conjunctivitis what are treatments other than eye drops ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lid hygiene: Most of what you describe goes under the heading of "Meibomian Gland Dysfunction". This is a lid stagnation and drying problem. You can help with mild lid scrubbing with shampoo, warm soaks and the addition of Omega oils to your diet. The eyedrops that will help this are mild steroids for the papillary conjunctivitis.
