    • A red, hot, exquisitely tender swelling near the edge of the eyelid
    • Inflamed (red and swollen) eyelids
    • Burning or sore eyes
    • Crusty eyelashes
    • Itchy eyelids

    Causes

    • The causes include:
    • It is commonly caused by bacterial infection (staphylococcus).
    • External stye may be caused by the infection of:
    • Eyelash follicle – holes for growing eyelashes
    • The Sebaceous gland – sebum producing gland that prevents eyelashes from drying out
    • The apocrine gland
    • Internal Stye may be caused when meibomian glands becomes infected.

    Prevention

    • Recurrent stye may need to practice eyelid hygiene.
    • Regular eyelid scrubs to remove excess germs and cell debris should be used.
    • Gentle cleaning of the eyelid with soapy water with eyes closed.
    • Avoid using contaminated towels.
    • Avoid using cosmetics around the eyelids.

    Complications

    If untreated for a prolonged period it may lead to:

    Chalazion (Meibomian cyst)

    • If you have a long term internal stye, it can become chalazion.
    • They develop if one of the glands in the eyes becomes blocked.
    • Warm compress can help relieve the symptoms but some rare cases require surgical removal.

    Preseptal Cellulitis

    • If the infection spreads to the nearby tissues around the eye this can cause preseptal cellulitis.
    • It is the inflammation of the layers of skin around the eyes.
    • This can be treated with antibiotics.

    What should I do if my eye stye persists?
    If the stye persists or recurs, book a consultation at The Eye Practice, as it is likely that any underlying blepharitis or meibomian gland dysfunction will require expert treatment. It is not uncommon to require an oral antibiotic such as Keflex in the acute stage and occasionally doxycycline to keep things in check.

    Can a stye affect my eyesight?
    Most styes are harmless to your eye and won't affect your ability to see clearly. Try self-care measures first, such as applying a warm washcloth to your closed eyelid for five to 10 minutes several times a day and gently massaging the eyelid. Contact your doctor if: The stye doesn't start to improve after 48 hours
