Blepharitis, or eyelid inflammation, one of the most common problems, is characterized by erythematous eyelids with accumulation of debris along the eyelid margin. Malignant eyelid tumors may be associated with lash loss and erosion of normal eyelid structures.
Moon phases depend on the position of both the Sun and Moon with respect to the Earth. The 4 primary phases of the Moon are: new, first quarter, full and third quarter.
But first quarter refers not to the Moon's appearance, but to its position in its month-long cycle of phases. And today, it's one-quarter of the way through that cycle. It'll be half-way through the cycle on the 17th.
