Facial Eczema: Types, Treatment, and Prevention

Light Sensitive Eczema

Just as in the name, this eczema is caused by a reaction from sunlight or humidity if your skin is light sensitive. You will gradually notice some of the symptoms of eczema on your face. Light sensitive eczema can affect both children and adults, although more common in children. Symptoms can be temporary, especially when caused by medications like diuretics or high blood pressure medicines. Your skin might improve once you stop taking these drugs. For others, light sensitive eczema is a chronic condition.

The best way to prevent this type of eczema is to apply sunscreen when going under the sun.
