ABSTRACT: Background
Eyelid eczema (EE) is frequently observed in patients with an allergic or atopic diathesis. As for atopic eczema, restoring the skin barrier of the periocular region together with relieving clinical signs and symptoms is important in the management of EE. This study assessed the benefit and tolerance of a dedicated dermocosmetic (DC) in subjects with EE.Materials and methods
Open-label study in adults with EE and sensitive skin. The DC was applied twice daily for 28 days. Dermatological signs (eczema, desquamation/dryness, erythema, swelling, roughness) and symptoms (itching, prickling, heat/burning sensation, tightness) on the periorbital region, as well as ophthalmological evaluation were assessed at Day 0, 14 and 28. Subjects assessed quality of life (QOL) using DLQI, the perceived benefit and cosmetic acceptability of the DC.Results
Overall, 41 subjects were included; 59% were women. The mean age was 52.4±15.8 years; all subjects had periorbital sensitive skin. The DC immediately reduced the intensity of itching, prickling, heat/burning sensation and tightness. Clinical signs and symptoms had all significantly (p<0.001) improved by Day 14 and were sustained to Day 28. The DC significantly (p<0.001) improved the perception of irritation (73%) and swelling (66%) while soothing (59%) the periorbital skin regions at Day 28. QOL had improved at Day 28 (0.82±1.0) compared to Day 0 (4.17±2.23). No local adverse reactions were reported. Ophthalmological examinations paralleled the excellent dermatological tolerance of DC.Discussion
The tested DC is highly efficacious in reducing clinical signs and symptoms of eyelid eczema and was well tolerated.Clinicaltrialsgov identifier
