Blepharitis is a term describing inflammation of the eyelids and is very common.
It is often a chronic condition a bit like having dandruff, which is difficult to cure but can easily be managed with care.
It can have many causes, and is classified according to the location of the inflammation.
Anterior blepharitis is inflammation of the part of the eyelid nearest to the lashes and outer edge of the lid margin, and the most common type of posterior blepharitis (in the part of the eyelid closest to the eye) is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction or MGD.

The prescribing and dispensing of spectacles are very closely linked and it would be in your best interests to have your spectacles dispensed where you had your eyes examined.
It is more difficult to resolve problems you may have with your spectacles when prescribing and supply are separated.
The College of Optometrists, which is the professional, scientific and examining body for optometry in the UK working for the public benefit, has issued this advice regarding your spectacle prescription.
If you have any diffilculty with your spectacles, please return to the practice where they have been dispensed to check they have been made correctly as the responsibility for handling 'non-tolerance' issues lies with the supplier.

I chose O'Brien's Opticians as they are a local firm that has good reviews.
They have different examinations carried out which has indicated vision issues that we not previously detected by my other previous opticians.
I liked the fact that I could get the same make of frame that I've had before as they fit well.
Dr. Janjua was very thorough, patient and explained the issues found with my vision.
He inspired trust not always felt with other opticians.
I found the staff at O'Brien's Opticians very kind, caring, helpful and competent.

I was always sceptical about changing opticians but I am so glad I did. The eye test was thorough and filled me with confidence. The choice of frames is good. I had Nikon varietals and whilst they were expensive, they are undoubtedly the best specs I have had. I never realised how inefficient my old glasses were. I suffer with vestibular migraine and had the transition lenses. they go dark in the car too and polarising means no glare. couldn't be happier. Good service, lovely team. Thanks joolz carter.

Report
During a routine eye examination, my daughter mentioned experiencing headaches to Dr. Janjua. Upon further examination, Dr. Janjua discovered bilateral optic disk swelling, prompting him to immediately contact Scunthorpe hospital for urgent opnomology evaluation. This timely intervention was crucial, potentially preventing a fatal outcome. Subsequently, my daughter underwent two CT scans and a lumbar puncture to alleviate pressure behind her eyes. She is now on lifelong medication. Thanks to Dr. Janjua's expertise and quick action, my daughter is now on the path to recovery.
