Styes are caused by an infection
in the hair follicle at the root of an eyelash. The infected area becomes sore
and red, making blinking extremely painful. Later, a spot will form and the
eyelid may itch. Rubbing the eyes must be avoided, however, because this will
only increase the irritation and may spread the infection. Do not try to treat
a style yourself beyond bathing it gently, using cotton wool moistened in warm
water or a weak solution of boric acid. There is no truth in the old gold
remedy so if you do get a stye, consult your doctor instead, who will treat it
with an antiseptic ointment. Very occasionally a stye may be blind that is it
develops in a gland beneath the skin and becomes blocked. This will need
separate treatment, sometimes even surgery to clear it.
