The present discovery pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present discovery pertains to certain di-isopropyl-phosphinoyl-alkanes as described herein, DIPA-1-7, DIPA-1-8, and DIPA-1-9, collectively referred to herein as “DIPA compounds”, that are useful, for example, in the treatment of the discomforts of dermatological disorders (e.g., diseases) The treatment is for the dysesthesia (e.g., caused by irritation, itch, or pain) due to dermatitis, urticaria; scalp itch; vulvar itch; lichen sclerosus; cholestatic itch; psoriasis; sebhorrheic dermatitis; allergic conjunctivitis; blepharitis; and pruritus of the elderly. The applicant has found that topical delivery of DIPA compounds to the skin alleviates the dysesthesia of these conditions in human subjects. The present discovery pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, for example, in the treatment of the dysesthesia of these dermatological disorders.

A heated eye mask apparatus for therapeutic treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction, blepharitis, dry eye disease, and related ocular conditions. The apparatus comprises a body portion with adjustable straps and a pair of detachable eye covers releasably secured to the body portion via fastening mechanisms enabling positional adjustment. Each eye cover includes at least one heating element with multiple independently controllable heating zones, allowing targeted thermal therapy to specific periocular anatomical regions. The heating elements are powered by rechargeable batteries integrated within the body portion, providing cordless operation. Flexible tethers connect the eye covers to the body portion, providing mechanical retention and electrical connectivity. A control interface comprising user-actuatable buttons enables independent activation of heating zones. Alternative embodiments may include a steam generation system providing combined heat and moisture therapy. The adjustable configuration accommodates varying facial anatomies and enables customized treatment based on individual therapeutic requirements.

A topical composition comprising, as active ingredient, a mixture of hyaluronic acid, trehalose and an extract of roots of Ophiopogon japonicus, for use as soothing and / or moisturizing agent for the eyelids and / or the contour of the eye in a subject with sensitive skin, in particular with blepharitis.

Blepharitis, an infection and inflammation of the edge of the eyelids, and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), blockage of tiny oil glands at the eye lid margin, are quite common, usually under diagnosed and underappreciated diseases. There are number of causes for blepharitis, including bacterial components such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Propionibacterium acnes and Corynebacteria sp., seborrhea or microscopic mites (Demodex). More than 50% of patients seeking ophthalmologic consultations have symptoms and signs indicating one of these entities. Another large number of patients remain undiagnosed or in early stages of disease that could be easily treated thus preventing long-term pain and suffering. MGD is in fact the leading cause of dry eye disease, a potentially preventable malady.

The embodiment of the invention provides an eyelid margin inflammation detection device, an eyelid margin inflammation detection method, computing equipment and a computer program product. The eyelid margin inflammation detection device comprises an image generation module which is used for shooting a to-be-detected eyelid by using a cross polarization light source to generate an eyelid coronal plane image; the signal extraction module is used for performing hemoglobin signal extraction processing on the eyelid coronal plane image to obtain a to-be-detected image; the first detection module is used for dividing an eyelid detection area and an eyelid margin detection area in the to-be-detected image; the first identification module is used for identifying a first hemoglobin abnormal region and a second hemoglobin abnormal region; the first determination module is used for determining a first proportion and a second proportion; and the detection module is used for obtaining a detection result of the to-be-detected eyelid according to the first proportion and the second proportion. According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the accuracy of blepharitis marginata inflammation detection is improved.
