Overview

Common risk factors in the development of blepharitis are dry eye syndrome, dermatologic conditions (acne rosacae, seborrheic dermatitis), demodicosis (chronic blepharitis), lice, and allergies.[1][2][3]

Risk factors

Blepharitis may be linked to repeated styes and chalazia. Common risk factors in the development of blepharitis include:[1][2][3]
