Apply the retinol around the eyes and then moisturizer after. No problem.

An ophthalmo talking about dermato and demonstrating it??? *YEEEEES!!!!!* That is the crossover we need. Isolating disciplines leads to nowhere. Overlaping them gives us a prismatic perspective. *THANK YOU* 🙌🏻🧛🏻‍♀️🖤

Very informative. As someone with dry eyes, I thank you for the warning!

Retinol destroyed my MG. I used prescription Retin-A for years with wonderful results but with that being said, I ended up destroying my glands and can no longer produce tears. I now wake up with horrible, burning dry eyes, and have to feel my way to the bathroom just to get my drops. there’s plus and minuses to everything folks so heads up. I use Retin-A for years, and now this is what I’m stuck with 😢

Sad...But at the same time, very good to know! 😌 I'm gathering information on retinol use since I plan to start using it in a few months. I was going to build my way up to apply it around the eyes.

Hello doc!! Thanks for the nice info!! What about vitamin E??? Can we use it around eyes??

@ns658: I use retinol 2-3 hours after I’ve moisturized. You want to apply it to ‘dry skin.’ My friend is a dermatologist & she shared this beauty tip. I’m very careful about putting retinol around my eyes. I’d say use a retinol that isn’t very strong and apply once every few nights. There are some retinols that specifically state for the eye area. I have yet to put any products on my eyelids but I hear Olay has a cream & gel for the eye area and one can put it on the eyelids. I haven’t tried that yet.

Thank you for the video, very useful

Thank you so much for this video. Does applying only twice a week (avoiding the eye area) can limit the risk of dry eye ? Thankssss

Thank you so much for this video. It terrified me in a good way. Have started a retinol regimen and bought a retinal eye cream as well. I’ve been putting it under my eyes and around my lids. My eyes started to dry out to the point where I could hear myself blink😳.! Thank goodness I have only applied eye cream for a few days-then I found your video today.

Anything I put near my eyes "migrates" and gets in my eyes. I would never put vaseline or anything oily or that won't evaporate near my eyes. Thanks for the info!

What about eye creams that have RetinAl in them? For instance, the Beauty of Joseon one or Medik8 just came out with their Crystal Retinal Eye Cream which I’m very interested in since I have loved their regular Crystal Retinal for years and even used it in low concentrations around the eye area already with no issues.

Hi Doc, i’ve read that Vitamin C interferes with melanin production. Does this also apply to the one contained in the beard follicles for example, making it turn white sooner? And what about retinol? It does the same? I already have some whites and i’m worried. Thank you!

What about Skin Better Alpha Ret. Guess not good near eyes either? I have to put ointment in my eyes because of dry eye damage so I quit Retin A and my skin really shows it. I can’t see that ointment being a barrier cream/ if the Retin a hot in it-ouch. I am also supposed to use press and seal to shut my eyes at night because they don’t shut all the way and causes dry eye areas. I’m afraid even with the ointment the Retin A could travel up under the Press snd Seal

Use Peter Thomas Roth Peptide 21 serum as eye cream. A great anti-aging alternative to retinol for under eye.

I'm so glad I found this video because I was looking for a reason to never apply my retinol eye cream again.

YES! you have to give up Retinal completely. I am living proof it gave me severe dry eye over 3 years of use. I used a Retin-A prescription for the same amount of time I developed dry eye. I had no clue it was doing this to me. At first I slapped it on my face and very subtly over time I "developed" sensitive eyes to my eye cream, then my face cream the everything starting with red eye's and burning an hr or so after applying my creams. I NEVER ever put retin-A around my eyes. Then I started to read in the last 6 months about the correlation between the two, even tho you carefully avoid your eyes or even use vaseline it can't help but move up to your eyes, it get's on your pillow while you sleep and then you turn and it rub's into your eyes. Also it goes into your system as It can cause birth defects. Over time my lid margin became thick on the bottom and top so much that if I wanted to wear eyeliner I would have a white line under my eyelashes because it was so swollen. I had to give up makeup completely. I had extensive dry eye appointments with lipi flow and I am on Xiidra and heat with no reason why you just have dry eye ((( 2 weeks ago I decided for 1 month to stop using the Retin-A and see if my eyes get better, well it's made a huge difference!! the lid margin is so much thinner. My eyes are not red and they barely burn. I wish the eye doctor would have told me to stop Retin-A just to be on the safe side. I hope this helps someone at least think twice about using it at all if you have dry eye. This has been a nightmare for me.

I have also stopped retin-A at night (will never do that) but I apply short contact for 1 hr 3x a week and it's working great, I see a difference. I wash then apply pea size amount all over avoiding eyes of course then I go off and watch TV or read, I put nothing on top because it is being washed off in an hr. Then I wash off and put my moisturizer on and I am going to stay with that because I think it really works. There are some studies saying you get almost the same benefit as leaving on all night )))) I don't think honestly the Retin-A caused it I think I had dry eyes and the Retin-A made it WORSE. Try the short contact for a week and see how you feel. Hope you eye's feel better and thank you for chatting with me. Oh and I did realize that I was touching my eyes CONSTANTLY all day without knowing it. I have lotion on my hands constantly, I touch my face with cream, makeup etc constantly and then because my eyes are always hurting I am trying to massage my lids to make more water/oil so I was transferring (including retin-a probably) to my eyes.

Hello Dr. D! What about bakuchoil on the occular area?

I use retinol (adapelen cream .1%) and I've mostly tried to avoid the eyelids when applying, but I might have applied there sometimes without noticing. I have dry eyes, but also suffered from it after LASIk surgery, it's just that around 6 months after starting with retinol it has become worse. Is it likely that the cause of the worsening of symptoms is the retinol? I have my doubts since I've never felt any burning or irritation anywhere on my face or around the eyes.

Dr please guide I am using ordinary retinol 0.2 from last week but I am getting eyes irritation though I applied vaseline around it.plses suggest should I continue or stop using it.

I used ordinary retinol 1% in squalane under eyes and i got wrinkles under my eyes due to it they were never there before it has been 2 months and wrinkles are still there will they ever go away?

@@YinYanUzumaki hello! My eyes are actually so much better now. I can't believe it. I'm following advice that somebody else posted here about putting the cream on for an hour and then washing it off. But I have been doing many other things. So I am not sure how big of a role the Retin-A played in my situation. I'm taking in a lot of healthy oils. Doing intermittent fasting. Getting sunlight. Walking barefoot on grass even. Haha. Giving my body more vitamin A (I have been scared of getting too much vitamin A because of the retin a. I don't think one should even take supplements for example when using the cream) BUT I'm no expert, just repeating what I heard online and maybe this is part of my problem, because I was scared of eating too much vitamin A. I also got a humidifier. I have been taking a whole range of different supplements. And... I have to add - I have so so many people praying for me 🙏🏻🙏🏻and my eyes. But I am amazed at how much better my eyes are feeling. So yes, I have down scaled on the Retin-A as well. Dry eyes is a horrible thing and I am pulling out ALL THE GUNS to make it better! (this also includes eye drops and a hot compress). Although I am using less and less eye drops!

@@renevanderwesthuizen1520 you sound like you have everything under control ! It’s wonderful to hear . Healthy oils are such an important part . I have been prescribed some medicated ghee ( for migraines ) and I observed that it helped with my eye dryness and over all dryness also in the body ( like feet ). I had an Ayurvedic check up where they read my nadi ( energy channels in the body ) and said my body is not producing enough bile but it also seems that it will be a long battle for me but I am hopeful . Good luck in your journey to healthier skin and eyes 😊

@@YinYanUzumaki you're so kind. Thank you. I have been wondering a lot if my body makes enough bile. But I have overloaded myself with healthy fats the past month. Even added some collagen supplements as well (seeing that it contributes to the health of our eyes). My dry eyes really feels less severe. But it still gets tired by the end of the day. Good luck with your journey as well. May your eyes improve dramatically and also, remember not to get the Retin-A close to your eyes! All the best! Xx

Thank you for sharing, but your video is toooooo long just to explain how to apply Retinol under your eyes. I couldn't finish watching. 🤦‍♀

@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Ok Thanks, I was looking for a quick answer. I bought a Mara Algae Retinol oil and I was wondering if I could use it as an eye cream too. 🙋🏻‍♀️☺️

@@Angela_1106 i avoid retinol in the eye area in general, just too much of a risk to the meibomian glands. but ok to use outside of where a eye mask would fall. forehead, cheeks, etc.

@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Thanks Dr I gave you a like 👍🏼 and subscribed to your channel. I wear glasses too. I have Miopía and Astigmatism in one eye. Health is first. We are going to get older and wrinkles anyway. I won’t take the risk of Retinol on my eyes, but I will use it on my checks and forehead. I live in Miami Beach Fl and the Sun ☀️ is giving me a lot of freckles. I just want them less noticeable. Thank you 🙏🏻 Dr .
