π€ Like dandruff?
Do your ladies ever clean your eyelids? I don't know if you still use a shampoo cap, but if you do have your hair washed, washing your eyes (keeping them firmly shut!!) with the run off from your head is good for keeping eyelids clean and healthy.
Failing that, have them clean your eyelids everyday with a clean damp flannel or a damp cotton wool pad (handy as they're always clean) and maybe even a tiny bit of mild baby wash.
I'm hesitant to mention dandruff treatments and tea tree oil as you'd be relying on others to apply it for you, and your eyes are precious.

Thomas gets this. I have an eye wash I bought a spray bottle to put it in and wipe with cotton pads.
Obviously a flannel face wash as well. HelpsDonna

stephen always complained of getting shampoo in his eyes so i have bought baby shampoo the no more tears kind and he hasnt had a problem since and it helps with regard to cleaning round his eyes. im also thinking eye make up remover pads would be good because they are made for the eye area and keep it well moisturised.when i can think of something profound i will update this.

I wonder if you have blepharitis? I have that and have to clean my eyelids with a cotton pad soaked in hot boiled water (not too hot) with a small amount of bicarbonate of soda in it.Bulbar ALS diagnosed September 2021, no speech, PEG fed, using ipad with Predictable to communicate, taking each day as it comes
