Additional features may include dilated blood vessels (telangiectasia), inflammation of the eyelid margins (blepharitis), keratitis and sebaceous gland hypertrophy especially of the nose.

Broken blood vessels, known as telangiectasias, are small diameter, linear blood vessels that occur on the surface of the skin. As we age, these are common on the face and cheeks, particularly on the sides of the nasal ala and around the nostrils.

Residual telangiectasia may respond to laser therapy. Topical glucocorticoids, especially potent agents, should be avoided since chronic use of these preparations may elicit rosacea.
