#blepharitis

Ein Gerstenkorn ist wie ein kleiner Pickel am Lidrand – unangenehm, aber meist harmlos.

Es entsteht, wenn sich eine Drüse am Lid durch Bakterien (z. B. Staphylokokken) entzündet.

Typisch: Schwellung, Rötung, Druckgefühl.

Was hilft?

– Warme Kompressen

– Hände waschen, nicht reiben

– Lidrand sanft reinigen

– Kein Make-up, keine Kontaktlinsen

– Teebeutel (nur bei Verträglichkeit)

Achtung bei mehreren Gerstenkörnern:

Wenn beide Augen betroffen sind, oben und unten – und sich neue schon ankündigen – steckt oft mehr dahinter:

– Lidrandentzündung (Blepharitis)

– Keimverschleppung durch Reiben

– Immunschwäche, evtl. Diabetes

– Stress, schlechte Hygiene

Dann gilt: ärztlich abklären, Ursachen finden, Pflege intensivieren.

—> Gerstenkörner sind Zeichen – nicht nur ein Schönheitsproblem.

I also have a hc that Sophie (despite being an elf of practically perfect health) has blepharitis, lmao, which leads to the nervous habit being relief and more than just a nervous tick.

Here’s how I cured my dry eye!

Here’s a link to the NKO Neptune Krill Oil - https://www.sourcenaturals.com/products/GP1752

I am not receiving any compensation for this video.  I just want to help other sufferers of dry eye.

So, I couldn’t be seen at Little Bro’s office. The optometrist and the ophthalmologist both had plans after work. I found an optometrist at a LensCrafters and scheduled an appointment.

After the doctor did a shitload of unpleasant things to my eye (so much light! and applying dye by sticking a piece of paper in my eye! and flipping my eyelids inside out!), she diagnosed me with a teeny tiny corneal abrasion, as well as blepharitis. Blepharitis is a bacterial infection of the eyelids. That explains why I have itchy eyelids and so many eye boogers, I guess.

Anyway, she recommended eyelid scrubs, artificial tears...and throwing out ALL OF MY EYE MAKEUP. And my brushes. “Anything that goes near your eyelids has to go.”

I actually started crying in the office. 

I mean, it makes sense and I’m going to do it, and I’m also going to be upset about it because it sucks! I’ll miss my Naked 3 palette, that was a huge splurge! I just bought that Bare Minerals concealer, and it wasn’t cheap!  The brushes were an elf set for $10, so that’s not too bad...but it’s still $10 that I don’t have because I spent it on the eye exam! (of course they don’t take my insurance...)

In the grand scheme of things, this is not terrible. But after dealing with irritated eyes and a huge doctor bill, it was enough to put me over the edge last night. And I’m still salty about it.

I can’t wear makeup for 2 weeks, either, which isn’t terrible but it’s a slight bummer.
