Understanding stye
An infected oil gland or lash follicle produces a stye: a small, sore, red lump on the lid margin.
Signs of stye to look for
- A gritty feeling
- Watering eye
- A tender red bump on the eyelid
- Swelling of the lid
- A small yellow spot as it comes to a head
Common triggers
Bacteria block a gland in the eyelid, frequently after touching the eyes with unwashed hands or using old make-up or contact lenses.
Care and treatment for stye
The physician can look at photos, confirm it is a stye, advise on care and prescribe an antibiotic ointment if appropriate. Treatment can involve warm compresses and, where needed, antibiotic ointment.
- Wash hands before touching the eye
- Avoid eye make-up and contact lenses until it heals
- Apply a warm compress for 10 minutes several times a day
- Do not squeeze the stye
