Unfortunately, there is currently no cure for this condition. However, it's effects can be reduced so that they are almost not noticeable. This can be done by applying a warm wet compress to the lids - such as a washcloth with hot water - for about 2 minutes. After this remove the crust around the eyes using a cloth or a Q tip with diluted facial soap or baby shampoo. Gently and repeatedly rub along the lid margins while eyes are closed. Ask for any treatments from your doctor to improve the condition. It might seem like a lot to do but it is possible to reduce the effects a lot so it is worth the trouble. It is important to keep in and around the eyes clean to avoid any infection too. This will need to be a continuous treatment or the irritation will arise again. Good luck I suppose.

Although there is no complete cure for this eye condition, it can be treated through following eyelid hygiene and using certain medications like eye drops that contain antibiotics. Blepharitis is a condition in which there is eyelid inflammation accompanied by other symptoms like red eyes and itchy eyelids.

Keeping good eye hygiene is one of the best ways to relieve the symptoms of blepharitis. Ways of doing this include applying a warm compress onto the inner eyelids, cleansing the eyelids with a lid scrub and gently massaging the eyelids. The warm compress helps loosen any crusts before applying the scrub and massaging helps the scrub clean the inside of the eyelid.
