    They are very tiny You cannot see them so don't try. You can't even see them on a normal microscope You have to have a very high powered microscope to see them. 

    When an optometrist or an ophthalmologist looks at your eyes They are actually going to see more of the remnants of Demodex like the eggs and the signs of its remnants too.

    It's going to have the signs of Demodex versus actually seeing the little mites. because you need an electron microscope almost to see these things.

    So if you're not itchy yet, you're probably itchy now but there's a lot of great solutions. Again, using commercially prepared tea tree soap products.
