My eye mites started building up after my cataract surgery. I could actually feel them moving around. I searched the internet and found eye mites and immediately knew I had them. Ivermectin cream once then the next week took care of them or at least got them under control. No more problem a year later and if they regrow I know what to do. I believe the topical antibiotics from the eye surgery cleaned out some bacteria that were limiting the mites.

Hi, all i know was my eye lids were always red, had what i thought was sleep in my eye lashes and suffer dry eye to the point i couldn't do anything because my eyes were watering all the time for up to good 30 mins, i was advised baby shampoo, how awesome it can't hurt me cause it's for babies, the trick is to wet eye lashes, put some baby shampoo on 2 fingers, enough for both eyes, rub the opposite fingers, then apply to eyes, wash in at all different angles to free up the crust, massage for anywhere up to 5 mins, the longer the better i feel, i used it till my eyelids were normal again, after that everytimes i saw redness return, i would treat again, now i haven't had to treat again for a long time. The baby shampoo has low ph so it doesn't burn as bad, it doesn't dry the skin out either and lastly it's cheaper than most products. I hope this help someone, like this vid helped me understand the unknown. In a way it's like having dandruff only on ur eye lashes...

Doctor, you may find that your Manuka honey cream is just made with plain honey. The manuka honey production is only a few tons per year from New Zealand, however at this time, there are 10 times more fir sale in the world. They are obviously just standard honey. The real thing, which I purchased from NZ is very dark brown, very thick but not solid, and does not taste that nice. A good natural way to get rid of these mites is to boil some fresh rosemary in water and use it as compresses once cooled down. If you don't have any fresh plants, get some essential oil and mix it with water or eye cream.

If these demodex are mites , one thing ive noticed about mites in gardens that they quickly become immune to pesticides, so what ive noticed is if you treat for mites with a pesticide you need to hit them a day or two later with an entirely different pesticide and it usually wipes them out. , since these are on the body you probably can only use certain things but if you use basically the one two punch like with pesticides you might have greater success. So maybe tea tree oil one time and something else a day or two later.

Use diatomaceous earth in the garden to kill mites or other bugs that eat fruit. Spray or powder but only when there is no flowers. You don’t want to kill bees. Protect your eyes from DE powder by wearing glasses.

Have never been able to wear mascara, or other eye makeup. Only relief i ever get is washing face multiple times a day. Once i got the 'trashcan diagnosis', MS, everything is now written off as another symptom. Basic eye drops help, but never knew there were actually treatments to end the mite infestation i now suspect has buggered me for years. Thank you again.

Doctor told me rose water or Baby shampoo..one little drop in palm of clean hand, add a little water, lather it into your closed eyes and rinse. It cleaned it up right away and no red eyes. Eyelashes grew back and it never came back, I never wore mascara bc of this.. I did use eyeliner..no problem..when was young I would do this once a month to keep it away, later moved to a northern country no allergies. But I stil now and then clean my eyes.

Blepharitis is caused by ducts getting blocked. Blink ten times. Towards the end can you feel moisture, that’s the ducts opening. To begin with, blink 40 times 5 times a day for two weeks. Then as things improve reduce but keep the morning and one before bed regimes going. I now blink about 100 times in bed just before I go to sleep and have been blepharitis free for four years now. No, treatments just normal soap night and morning no product ever worked for me. Let me know how you get on after a couple of months.

Dr. EyeGuy, I didn't see a link in the description for the ivermectin cream. Do you have the information for that? Thank you

@DrEyeGuy 22 дня назад

That is a prescription that is written by your doctor.

Omg!! I finally know what I have got. I can feel them moving. My lashes have been falling out . I have tried blephasol and a cream but they are not helping. Now I know, thank you

Blephasol is unuseful!

I always add tea tree oil (a drop or two) to my face cleansing routine and give my lash line and brows a good scrub. I have rosacea (or used to) and use diaper cream and vaseline on my cheeks if I have a flare. I tried the vaseline on my lash line but it really aggravated my eyes. I think if you get rid of most of it on your face, the tea tree oil takes care of the lash line. Well, it did for my anyway.

My doctor said to just put a hot wet towel over my eyes before bed. I just run a small flanel under the hot water, wring it out and roll it up and place it over my eyes while I lay on the bed till the towel goes cold. Has helped clear up symptoms, but I think the cause is still there, going to try some of these wipes maybe that will clear it up for good.

I got rid of my demodex by rubbing castor oil on my eyelashes nightly and washing my face numerous times a day. Also, I find changing my pillowcases more frequently helps.

@edl653 25 дней назад

How about to start with washing your eyelids with soap and water a couple times a day?

Ipl can also cause hyperpigmentation. It did for me

Could screen time and blue light promote the presence of these critters? Thanks for sharing.

@DrEyeGuy Месяц назад

Blue light is not associated with an increase of demodex, at least as far as I know. Screen time can be associated with meibomian gland dysfunction and dry eyes with blepharitis... so it could be associated with demodex blepharitis.

Thank you so much for posting this video Dr. Eye! I am 52 and have been suffering from dry eye and foreign objects in my eyes for few years. When I went to my new eye Dr. at the end of the visit she said btw, you have mites, very short no explanation, so thank you for the detailed explanation! Now my question: do I need to stop using makeup during my treatment? Do I need to throw away the eye makeup I have?

@DrEyeGuy Месяц назад

Great question! I should have put that in the video. 👉I usually tell my patients to avoid makeup and throw away makeup during the demodex treatment. I believe demodex can survive for hours in makeup.

@eileenvandernoot3867 Месяц назад

Yes, I threw away all my makeup and cleaned my brushes really well. Also, you need to buy new makeup that is “clean”. Meaning it is not made with parabens and fragrance. Merit is a very clean makeup at Sephora!

I’ll do that, thank you, both for your replies ❤
