What causes continuous eye styes to reappear?

Question

I have had 6 eye styes in the last 2 months on the same eye. What could this be?

Answer 1

I'm guessing, but keep your eyes cleaner, wash off make up, change the pillow case often, change the towels alot, eat foods to build your immune system.  I think you really need a doc for this.

Answer 2

Be sure that you don't rub your eyes!!! If you wear contacts you need to dispose of the contacts the case and the bottle of contact solution as the tip could be contaminated.  I'm sorry, I didn't notice if you're male or female...but depending..you need to throw out any eye make-up you've been using.  A Dr. once told me to wash around my eyes with Johnson's baby shampoo. If you accidentally get it in your eye it doesn't burn. Good luck!  Oh...and I know it's hard to remember not to rub your eyes, but make sure you wash your hands frequently...for those times that you forget about the eye rubbing!
