Video Testimonial: Just wanted to thank you for your website - what a great video and description of blepharitis - something I suffer terribly from. It was helpful to show my husband the video so that he, too, can understand just what it is. The picture of the glands was really helpful, as I haven’t been able to see mine, but am an a topical antibiotic/steroid for 2 weeks - it’s nice to see what I am actually targeting! Oral will be the next try if this doesn’t help. Anyway, your site was really, really helpful. Thanks again. -L.A.
