I have eczema around my eyes, what is safe to use?!


Question:

I have eczema around my eyes, what is safe to use?

I was prescribed 1% cortisone cream and want to use something safer. Does anyone know what I can use on a regular basis to hydrate the eczema around my eyes?


Answers:

i have the same problem and to make it worse my eyes crack at the edges sometimes. I started using Aquaphor (by eucerin) and it helps keep the skin hydrated. I put it on at night right after I wash my face so it locks in the moisture from the water. You can get it over the counter at most stores, i think i bought mine at Wal-mart. A cheaper alternative to Aquaphor is vaseline. hope this helps ; )
