Many cosmetic products and eye beauty trends can cause ocular surface complications, leading some cosmetics consumers to become patients for routine or urgent eye care. The convergence of social media, reality TV, and selfie culture fuels a growing obsession with long eyelashes and dramatic eye makeup. However, consumers are generally unaware of the many harmful ingredients found in their own beauty products.
This comprehensive article:
- reviews the potential Ocular Surface Disease (OSD) complications from popular eye beauty trends and cosmetics ingredients
- shares clinical pearls on identifying and managing OSD conditions effectively
- educates both clinicians and patients on developing healthier beauty habits
