 Blepharitis defines the inflammation of the eyelid margin and is one of the most commonly found conditions in ophthalmic practice being a frequent cause of ocular irritation and discomfort. Blepharitis can be classified as anterior when the inflammatory process affects the base of the eyelashes, ciliary follicles, and the palpebral skin, or posterior when there is dysfunction of the Meibomian glands located on the posterior eyelid margin. Anterior blepharitis is divided into staphylococcal and seborrheic. The first has hard crushes at the base of the eyelashes and is the result of an abnormal cellular response to the cell wall components of Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus). The second is frequently associated with generalized seborrheic dermatitis and has soft, greasy crusts that stick to the eyelashes. Blepharitis has a multifactorial pathogenic mechanism, and its etiology is not clearly known. Evidence indicates a relation with infectious, allergic, systemic, and environmental c...
