Corneal erosion leading to infection and ulcer. This is a horrid little drop. Because of it's thickness, it stays on the eye for quite some time. I don't understand where the others say it is soothing. To me it feels like lemon juice has just been poured into a gaping wound.

I don't understand where the others say it is soothing. To me it feels like lemon juice has just been poured into a gaping wound. After the 10 minutes of stinging, then comes the 30 minutes of throbbing. After an hour of ice packs, I begin to feel better. I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy. My dr tells me this will help to eliminate scarring and further infection from using steroid drops. I'm not seeing results. Vision continues to be cloudy after almost 5 weeks of treatment.

I am not a stockholder. Azasite was prescribed for my blepharitis. It is somewhat difficult to use. One MUST turn the small bottle over and shake once to force the viscous liquid into the tip of the dispensing neck. Otherwise it appears that the bottle is empty when squeezed. Put firm steady pressure on the sides of the bottle until drop emerges. For blepharitis I was advised to put the drop on a ... Show Full Comment

I am not a stockholder. Azasite was prescribed for my blepharitis. It is somewhat difficult to use. One MUST turn the small bottle over and shake once to force the viscous liquid into the tip of the dispensing neck. Otherwise it appears that the bottle is empty when squeezed. Put firm steady pressure on the sides of the bottle until drop emerges. For blepharitis I was advised to put the drop on a figertip and apply in a back and forth manner to the eyelids, rather than into the eye directly. Having said it is effective, at the same time I received the prescription I was advised to use eyelid cleaner before each application. Either Sterilid foam or Ocusoft lid scrub pre-moistened pads-both sold at WalMart at best price available. I like the pads. Use folded once and massage in a back and forth motion then rinse well and pat dry. Use one side for first eye then turn over and use the other side on the other eye. I use Bounty to pat dry. It may be that with pad or foam use I could avoid the Azasite. We shall see when course of treatment ends.

I have given this AzaSite for my condition of Blepharitis. It has allowed my eyes to not be red all the time and for me to be able to wear eye makeup again. My eye dr. has had me on it for 175 days. He told me I'll be on it indefinately. As long as my eyes are not red all the time I'll be happy. At least I won't be stared at like some horrid thing. Instead I look normal.
