10 Causes of Blepharitis
Cause #10: Trauma
Eye trauma may be due to an accident, scratching of the eye, contamination, or a puncture. This can lead to an irritation of the eye, shown in symptoms such as redness, swelling, severe pain, and bleeding.
Trauma automatically involves exposure to factors that are damaging to the health of the eye and, depending on what the eye has exactly been exposed to, may lead to some type of blepharitis. It is best to try and prevent any type of eye trauma by protecting your eyes as much as possible from being directly exposed to the environment and its negative factors.
