High Prevalence of<i>Demodex</i>in Eyelashes with Cylindrical Dandruff

Abstract

The modified sampling and counting method showed that the prior controversy regarding Demodex has resulted from miscounting and confirmed that lashes with CD are pathognomonic for ocular Demodex infestation. Lid hygiene with shampoo reduces Demodex counts but does not eradicate the mites.
