Kusadasi: local notes for stye
Kusadasi is a busy resort town and cruise port with trips to Ephesus, so long days of sun and walking are typical. Long walking days, heat and crowds can slow recovery, so build in rest and shade and tell the doctor how your days are going.
Stye explained
A stye is a small, tender red bump on the edge of the eyelid that forms when an oil gland or eyelash follicle becomes infected.
How stye feels
- A small yellow spot as it comes to a head
- Swelling of the lid
- Watering eye
Common triggers
A bacterial blockage of an eyelid gland is the cause, commonly following rubbing the eyes with dirty hands, or from out-of-date cosmetics or contact lenses.
