Hi , I have been facing this since 2 years , GP doctors still saying eczema , today one of the pharmicist pointed out that its psoriosis not eczema .. really strange situation with NHS GP in london.
Long story short, i have been using epimax original cream and epimax eyelid ointment (Emollients) to keep the skiin moist since last 2 years, it has been under control but spreading very slow.
Now, since last 2 months, it has worsened and increased . Speed at which it is coming up on skin near by eyes , is a nightmare.
Is anyone suffereing similar issue, if yes, pls share your experience and treatment details. WOuld love to know dermetologiest you are consulting. Looks like i need to step up from my emolluments

I've had psoriasis for 37 years and it always flares round my eyes and ears, I was so sore and itchy but all the prescriptions made it worse and couldn't be used near the eyes, I currently use 'Mixa, urea cica repair plus', Which was recommended by someone on this forum and it's brilliant for taking the redness and itch down quickly. It can be purchased in Tesco for around £10 for a 400ml pump bottle.
Round the eyes is tricky to treat without getting lotions in your eyes. I use a cotton bud to dab cream on so there's no rubbing in on the delicate skin.
