    The exact cause of eyelid inflammation cannot always be determined, but different factors may increase your risk of blepharitis. For example, you may have a higher risk if you also have dandruff on your scalp or eyebrows. It’s also possible to have an allergic reaction to makeup or other cosmetic products you apply around your eyes, triggering eyelid inflammation. These are not the only possible causes. Other causes or risk factors for eyelid inflammation include: having eyelash mites or lice; bacterial infection; medication side effects and a malfunctioning oil gland.
