My doctor diagnosed me with mild Blepharitis. Will it get worse? Is there a cure for it? Will it preclude me from refractive surgery such as Lasik etc.?

Hi Frank,

It is generally recommended that you get blepharitis under control before undergoing treatments like LASIK.

In terms of more general information, there is an excellent page on blepharitis at the Mayo Clinic, including great tips for self-care:

Warmest regards,
Sam
