Blepharitis and the collagen eye patch.

In our practice, blepharitis is one of the more common eyelid abnormalities and one of the most difficult to treat. We introduce a new treatment that we have found to be helpful. A prospective study was devised to test its efficacy using 20 patients distributed randomly into three different treatment protocols. Our new protocol, using lyophilized collagen pads as adjunctive treatment, significantly improved results compared with controls. We had a 79% improvement in symptomatology and a 78% improvement in objective findings.
