Question

I have a sty on my lower eye. How do I get rid of this nonsense?

Answer 1

Warm compresses frequently throughout the day and there's a stye medication available which you can get at places such as Walmart.

Also, be sure not to touch your eye and touch anywhere else as it tends to spread easily.

Answer 2

warm rag

Answer 3

Am d**n sure you are touching your eye again and again because of the discomfort the stye is giving you.

Stop touching your eyelid with your hand/fingers. The germs/bacteria on your fingers are transferred to your eye and the region around the stye which does not allow the infection to subside.

Stye may ba a cause of uncorrected refractive error. In order to see things clearly we try to rub our eyes which transfer germs of our fingers/hands to our eye causing stye.

Consult an Optometrist.

By the time, you can keep your eyes clean and applying some warm compression to the affected area.

Warm compression can be done with the help of warm water and disposable sterile cotton swabs.

You can also take Tylenol tablets or any other non prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory which will help reduce pain as well as the inflammation.

BUT apart from all this, DONT FORGET TO SEE A DOCTOR/OPTOMETRIST
