Hey, I want to tell you that no matter what anyone says about blepharitis, it is totally curable and that too naturally, yes you read it right!In the beginning, I started having tiny dandruff crust on the eyelid margin. At first, I totally ignored it but grew severe by time, it started getting red and very swollen. I would have severe dry eyes and sometimes very watery eyes. I would have a gritty feeling in the eyes and the eyelash follicles were so inflamed. I also observed that my eyelashes were heading downwards. I really got scared and went to the doctor, that is where I got to know that I have blepharitis, not curable, and will be lifelong. The beginning days were full of misery and depression. I totally got frustrated with the fact of having it throughout life. Then went to numerous doctors but the answer was the same, "it's chronic".
Then I started surfing the internet and founded out that everyone was just talking and advising about hot compresses, antibiotics, and steroids(never-ever take steroids). Then something got my attention, in a website it was written that it is linked to the gut and is an inflammation of the eyelids. I searched more on inflammation and saw that inflammation is caused by autoimmune conditions and allergies. Autoimmune conditions and allergies occur when there is something wrong in your digestive system: it can be leaky gut, fatty liver, malabsorption, unbalancing of gut microbiota, etc. I founded remedies and ways to heal my gut. And within a month, I started getting results. I observed that tiny dandruff vanished and the redness is gone! After a few weeks following the diet I just saw the whole thing was gone! NO REDNESS, NO DRY EYES, NO SWOLLEN EYES, and THE EYELASHES GREW BACK UPWARDS AND GREW LONG AND CLEAN AND NO WATERY EYES. The bloody eye monster was cured!
You don't need to use any cleansing, any pads, wet ones, hot compresses, antibiotics, steroids, and BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!
All that you need is to take care of yourself and heal your body's functioning. Improve your diet and embrace yourself. Today when I look at my healthy eyes I realize all this was worth it.
Here is my diet and exercise routine:-
1. YOGA: It is the most powerful thing to cure any disease and the major part that cured my blepharitis was yoga. Some yoga postures for a healthy digestive system, autoimmune and skin conditions, allergies(and blepharitis) are Kapalbhati, Anulom-vilom, Pranayam, Surya Namaskar(google them out they are really a cure).
2. Plenty of exercises.
3. Stay Hydrated.
4. Chew your food to paste so that the nutrients can be absorbed and the gut will heal.
5. Eat plenty of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin c.
6. Improve your immune system.
7. Add turmeric to your diet, it is a natural healer and calms down inflammation.
It's worth it just give it a try as it does not has any side effects but only benefits. Please contact me for further queries and don't give up and get depressed. Please be consistent and continue them for at least 2 months and you'll be cured. Its been 5 years since then and it has never come back.
Thank you and spread out love and health to all. May God bless you with lots of happiness, health, and light!
