What causes small blisters to develop below the eyelashes, and what medicines or ointments can I use to treat them?

Asked by Female, 34 · 18 hours ago

Small blisters below the eyelashes are usually caused by clogged oil glands (meibomian cysts), styes, or mild eyelid inflammation (blepharitis). These conditions are very common and highly treatable. The best initial step is applying a warm compress to your closed eyelid for 5?10 minutes daily to help open the blocked glands. If an infection is present, a doctor may prescribe generic antibiotic ointments like erythromycin or bacitracin. For viral cases, acyclovir ointment may be used. Please avoid popping them and consult an eye doctor for an accurate diagnosis and safe prescription.
