Dry eyes

Does anyone here have dry eyes/blepharitis/MGD and how do you deal with them?
I've been proscribed a heat mask, eye drops, blephasol. I do it every day, have done it for nearly a month (i was diagnosed a month ago) and although there does seem to be some relief, lately my eyes have gone back to twitching, and they are still bloodshot
Have you tried placing water in your eyes?
Water is wet so its should work

look up what "dry eyes" are. It's got nothing to do with putting water on them. You clearly don't have dry eyes so why offer advice on something you're not qualified on

I use a dry eye spray, tried all that blepharitis stuff and didnt feel it did much. I use the spray every night before bed, and can always tell when iv forgot to use it. I just get a cheapish one like superdrugs own brand, dont need optrex ir whatever

Use eye drops they help my mum
I find putting Vaseline on the skin around my eyes helps a bit, and not wearing contact lenses if you do currently

Also you should work on your nutrition.
In addition, do you take any other meds or have any other health issues?
