Optase wipes for eyes

Hi all.

New here.

Need some advice please ive just had my eyes tested and they advised me to use twice a day Optase Wipes as they said ive got Blepharitis. My question is can i use anyother brand ie teatree wipes as in a shop i can get 2 packs of 25 for £1 rather than a pack of 20 for £9.99. I fully understand that the Optase are medical but im just asking as £1 vs £10. With thanks

tea tree wipes are generally unnecessary for blepharitis unless it is due to Demodix  which is rather unusual.  Other products for blepharitis include both lid foam shampoo and wipes made by Ocusoft, Blink and Systaine lid wipes and the very effective but prescription Avenova
