    1. Seborrheic blepharitis and meibomitis are caused by abnormal excessive production of neutral lipids by the glands of Zeis which are broken down by bacterial lipase into irritating free fatty acids (FFA). 2. Treatment involves warm compresses, lid scrubbing, antibiotic eye drops, and oral antibiotics in severe cases. Topical steroids and ocular lubricants help reduce inflammation and dry eye symptoms. 3. Doxycycline 100mg twice daily for 2-4 weeks is the mainstay of treatment to control the underlying infection and inflammation.
