| Summary: |
Blepharitis is a term,
which refers to a group of disorders producing
inflammation of the lid margin and associated adnexal
structures. Blepharitis is one of the most common ocular
disease in our clinical practice but the pathophysiology
understanding is incomplete. Clinical and laboratory
investigations established microorganism and Meibomian
gland dysfunction as the most likely determinants.
Blepharitis is difficult to classify because of complex
mechanisms of the underlying pathogenesis. Unfortunately,
there is no successful therapy for this conditions. |
