I have severe blepheritis and constantly scratch my corneas due to my dry eyes. I have tried OCusoft's other lid cleansers but whatever they've put in this one has given me so much relief. My eyelashes have grown out and are much fuller now (had a small bald-spot due to the inflammation of my lids). Itchy eyes are virtually gone now, dryness severely reducedI use it twice a day, started using it from about the end of January and it's been weeks since I've scratched my cornea! (Happens when I'm sleeping and my eyes get so dry that when I wake up they're stuck together and scratches the surface of my eye when I wake up... extremely painful).I use this in conjunction with (sometimes) OCusoft's Hypochlor. I highly recommend this to anyone with eye inflammation, dry eyes, blepheritis etc.It has brought me much relief, my eyes feel so much better. Hope the next buyer gets the same relief and comfort I did. UPDATE 2020: I came back to let everyone know that since I've started using this I have NOT SCRATCHED my corneas since!!! It's been over 2 years! My usage now is to maybe once a week. Usage of eye drops is also significantly reduced as well....I used to go through bottles of theratears. Now I irregularly use them. I'd have to say that this product probably gave my eyes the time to properly heal. I used to have times when my Ophthalmologist would say "you have two corneal tears on one eye, one the other, nothing much I can I can do to help, this is just how your eyes are". It was so painful, I can't believe I used to live with it. Thank god for this. It has SAVED me. Highly recommended! And if you're curious in the last 2.5 years I've probably gone through maybe 2-3 bottles, so it does last an incredibly LONG time! Read more

A welcomed relief and used as #2 in a 3-step eye-care cleansing regimen for what was decades of painfully dry eyes, that was later diagnosed as MGD and discovered to be demodex. After trying all the eye drops, punctual plugs for my upper AND lower lids, hot compresses and scrubbing my eyelids inside and out with baby shampoo and a microfiber cloth, I did some research. Then I looked up the products that showed success in the FDA published trials. I’m not a doctor and am not qualified to give a medical or scientific opinion. I share this because I benefited from the feedback of other Amazon reviewers after I chose the products that made sense for me. I’m grateful because it seems that some people who suffer from severe dry eyes-like I have for decades-are people who are under diagnosed. For my demodex blepharitis I use 3 products from a company I already trusted and still use their MGD eye drops: OCuSOFT. I am not known to this company, nor do I get a discount. Again, I was inspired by other reviewers and my own research. Years ago I received two single-use vials of the only eye drops that made a difference from my ophthalmologist as samples, and that result made me like OCuSOFT. I purchased all three products on Amazon and wish they could be prescribed so my insurance would help pay for them, but they do go a long way. What is working for me: 1. Oust Demodex Cleanser Extra Strength, foam. I gently scrub this onto my lids with a non-woven, soft, lint free glaze, especially in my lashes and brows, let it sit for a minute, then wash off. 2. With clean fingers I apply and leave on the Lidscrub Plus Platinum foam, and finish the same way with 3. HypoChlor spray. My sincerest thanks to the other reviewers who not only listed their diagnosis or symptoms in clear terms, along with their experiences and the steps to the regimen that is bringing them relief! My regimen is similar, if not the same as yours-partially or completely, and so is the relief that drastic measures and even surgery couldn’t accomplish. Getting the correct diagnosis by my doctor and following up was the start. Read more

I have meibomian gland disorder . This is a more serious disorder than the usual blepharitis and is an uncurable chronic condition. I spent years having to use wet heat compresses morning and night in order to keep my lids comfortable and my dry eyes under control as well as using lid scrubs. This lid scrub has an anti-inflammatory ingredient as well as the usual antibacterial ingredients. I use it morning and night, leave it on for a whole minute with my eyes closed (I actually use a timer) and I rinse it off before opening my eyes. Many lid scrubs suggest you rinse them off if you are sensitive, so if it irritates your eyes, rinse them off. The directions say to leave it on for best results. I find this product works very well for me. I don't even have to use tear drops very often if I use this regularly. This product along with Thera Tears Sterilid to keep those buggies from developing immunity to the ingredients and then erythromycin ointment occasionally and I am a happy camper. Love this product!!! Read more
