Is it possible to cure and get rid of blepharitis on the eyelashes and eyebrows ?

Not curable: But treatable and controllable. See an ophthalmologist for management.

Yes: It requires diligent, at least daily, "scrubs" of the lashes and eye lid margins with baby shampoo (or commercially available small impregnated gauze pads) and use of warm wet compresses. Topical and/or systemic antibiotics may also be necessary.

Treatment, yes: This is a chronic condition that requires daily attention there are numerous treatments/therapies, but no "cure" that will make it go away forever.

Maybe: This is strictly dependent on the type and reason for the blepharitis.
