What is Blepharitis

About

Blepharitis is a common condition that causes inflammation of the eye lids and can affect people of all ages. It usually affects the rim of the eyelids of both eyes and usually is not serious but still irritating and uncomfortable. Eyelids may become crusty and scaly and eyes may feel gritty and very tired with increasing irritation when outdoors in sunshine or around any polluted or smoke filled environment.

What is Blocked Tear Duct Treatment

What is a Blocked Tear Duct?

A Blocked Tear Duct is a common condition that can affect people of all ages. It occurs when tears cannot drain properly due to an obstruction in the tear drainage system. When these ducts become blocked, the tears cannot flow into the nasal cavity as they should, leading to persistent eye watering, frequent infections, and sometimes pain or swelling around the eyes.

At Moorfields Eye Hospital Dubai and Abu Dhabi, our experienced surgeons offer personalised care using the latest techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for patients with blocked tear ducts.
