Chengdu Guoguang Eye Hospital: What are the treatment methods for eyelid diseases?

medication
Drug therapy is one of the main treatments for eyelid diseases. According to different causes and symptoms, doctors will prescribe appropriate drugs according to the specific conditions of patients. Common blepharopathy drugs include antibiotic eye drops, anti-inflammatory eye ointment, anti allergic eye drugs, etc. For example, when treating blepharitis, the doctor will prescribe antibiotic eyedrops for local application to remove bacterial infection and relieve red, swollen and painful eyelids. In addition, there are also some drugs that can improve the wetness and softness of the eyelid skin, thereby alleviating problems such as dry and itchy eyelids.
However, drug treatment is not applicable to all eyelid symptoms. For some complex cases, it is necessary to combine other treatment methods to provide better efficacy.

Common eyelid surgery includes eyelid incision and drainage, meibomian gland resection, meibomian gland hyperthermia, etc. These operations can achieve the purpose of treatment and repair by restoring or improving the function of the eyelid.
Eyelid incision and drainage is suitable for patients with complicated dacryocystitis or dacryocystis fistula.
