Overview
Blepharitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause eye itching, irritation, burning, and foreign body sensation such as allergic contact dermatitis, conjunctivitis, trichiasis, dry eye syndrome, keratitis, hordeolum, chalazion, rosacea, and sebaceous carcinoma.[1]
Differentiating Blepharitis from Other Diseases
- Allergic contact dermatitis
- Allergic conjunctivitis (atopic keratoconjunctivitis)
- Bacterial conjunctivitis
- Viral conjunctivitis
- Trichiasis
- Dry eye syndrome
- Keratitis
- Hordeolum
- Chalazion
- Rosacea
- Superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis
- Contact lens complications
- Sebaceous carcinoma
Blepharitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause red, swollen, and itchy eyes. Blepharitis must be differentiated from:[2][1][3][4][5][6][7]
