If you go to the Pharmacy they can have a look and perhaps suggest some drops or ointment.
In the meantime, only use cooled boiled water, and cotton pads . Wipe from the inside of your eye (nose side) out. Change the pad each time you wipe, and discard after, as otherwise you’re just going to spread the infection .
Thank you for information about eye problems I've been bathing regularly and I think it's working thanks again best wishes.

SOME bay products are strong in perfumes and can make matters worse, just buy simple Double Base Gel, I rub it on eye lids up nostrels in ears and all over body really, I use it in the shower too as my skin is very dry with sjorgrens plus age!
Hi nanbob suffer with it and it was the optician that spotted it i had infection in then and she told me i had dry eye syndrome she gave me antibiotics drops and some other drops which is just water any way got the eyes healed and i put drops in 3 times a day now (water)
So you can go to your optician or just buy the small water eye drops good luck x
Yes Moorfields eye specialist told me that he sees many fibromyalgia suffers with dry eyes blepharitis etc. I have suffered many years with both. recommended blephaclean wipes , hylo forte eye drops these help a lot. Taking flaxseed oil and eating oily fish is recommended. I am sorry you are suffering.
According to hubby's eye surgeon, who recently tried correcting double vision in one eye, you are doing the right thing with baby shampoo and wiping eye. I think boiled water or sterile is good too. The Dr. Also said to use hot compresses several times a day which is a pain in the neck to keep doing. My hubby's eye is healed but is still red. Hope this helps.
My eye trouble is different....eyesight changes due to Fibro. M.A. In USA
Blepharitis is the bane of my life! Or was, but chemist friend of mine recommended blephaclean wipes and lotion. The wipes are really good, I noticed a difference after just one day, they are expensive but I get them on repeat now. Hope this helps xx
