I have occular rosea and was treated with doxycyclene for a number of years. Eventually that drug affected my esophygus and I was immediately taken off of that drug. I now use compresses every night and also use an eye solution with a cotton swab to clean my upper and lower eyelids. Sometimes this condition flares up no matter what I do to where its a constant burning in my eyes and causes me so much discomfort. Any suggestions?

Hi Joanne,

These 2 links to interviews might be helpful ;

http://rosacea-research.org/wiki/index.php/Ocular_Rosacea:_Dr._Eric_Jones,_MD

and

http://rosacea-research.org/wiki/index.php?title=Ocular_Rosacea:_Dr._Mark_J._Mannis%2C_MD
and also the ocular rosacea community forum.

There are more options for sure. Do you a supportive opthamologist as a starting point ?
