Ocular Rosacea

Recommendations and Daily Management

Ocular Rosacea affects around 60% of people with cutaneous rosacea (rosacea of the skin).

The symptoms can include:

dry eyes or eyes which feel sandy;
inflamed or dry/flaking eyelids;
eyelash loss;
inflammation of the eye-whites;
inflammation of the iris;
visual dysfunction

Patiens suffering eyelash loss may consider Jan Marini Age Intervention Eyelash, a treatment to prevent excessive lash loss and increase lash growth. News on results, and before and after images, are available from Melbourne Dermatology.

The home care treatments for ocular rosacea are as follows.

Soothing Cleansing Lotion and Compresses for Ocular Rosacea Patients (Oil Free) – for use in the mornings and evenings, to soothe and condition the eyelids and under-eye area, and to remove make-up safely if used.
Also used added to pads pre-moistened with warm water as compresses, left to act for 10 or more minutes at a time.
Oil Free Soothing Gel for Eyes – de-sensitizes skin and increases healing with titrated Centella Asiatica, proline amino acid, zinc and camomile.
Used during the day it allows eye make up for rosacea to wear well while buffering its contact with the eye contour skin to further reduce any likelihood of eyelid reactivity.
Ocular Rosacea Safe Masacara – free of film formers and fragrance; when used daily assists in strengthening lashes and preventing them from early falling. Such, use over many weeks results in a much improved lash population. The natural brown formula may also be used by men with sparse lashes.
Generally only 1-2 coats are used on the upper lashes only.
The ocular rosacea safe mascara provides a natural result. It is not intended to dramatically thicken lashes as the required ingredients for that action are generally irritating to the eyes).
Ocular Rosacea Safe Make-Up – combining protective low-dose antioxidants such as vitamin E, lecithin and organic aloe to assist in reducing eyelid reactivity and smoothing the skin's texture. Best used over Oil Free Gel for Eyes.
The ultra-fine crushed mineral content of the Eye Shadows for Ocular Rosacea provide a UV block for the fine eye contour skin, not normally able to be protected by sunscreens due to their chemical content.

Ocular rosacea may also require treatment by a eye specialist. Blindness is a possible symptom of this rosacea variant.
