Hello!
This is Cube Eye ๐ from Gangnam Cube Eye Clinic.
Recently, we have been seeing an increasing number of patients with eye styes.
Typically, the number of stye cases rises by about 30% in summer, but they also frequently occur in winter due to increased indoor activities.
Today, we'll discuss the types, causes, treatments, and preventive measures for eye styes.
What is an Eye Stye?
A stye is an acute purulent inflammation caused by a bacterial infection in the eyelid's sebaceous glands.
Types of Stye
External Stye
An acute purulent infection in the Zeis’ or Moll’s glands.
It tends to swell and harden, causing significant tenderness.
Over time, the infection may drain externally.
Internal Stye, Hordeolum
An acute purulent infection of the Meibomian gland.
The pain may intensify over time.
Chalazion
A chronic granulomatous inflammation of the Meibomian gland.
Occurs when the opening of the gland is blocked, leading to an accumulation of oil.
It is a non-bacterial inflammation, usually causing little to no pain.
Causes of Styes
Our eyelids contain glands that secrete oil to keep our eyes moist along with tears.
However, oil buildup can cause inflammation, and if bacteria infect the area, a stye forms.
Styes are mainly caused by Staphylococcus bacteria, while chalazions result from blocked oil glands leading to chronic cyst formation.
Treatment for Styes
Warm Compress
The simplest and most effective initial treatment.
Helps reduce inflammation and liquefy clogged oil for easier drainage.
Medical Consultation
Visiting an eye specialist for further treatment is recommended.
Antibiotics, pain relievers, or minor procedures may be used to treat inflammation.
Antibiotics
If the stye is severe or persistent, consult a doctor for an appropriate antibiotic prescription.
Surgical Treatment
If the pain is severe and persistent, visit an eye clinic for treatment.
Hard or deep-seated styes may require minor surgical drainage.
โ ๏ธ Do not squeeze or poke the stye yourself!
Prevention Tips for Styes
Hand Washing
Washing hands frequently can prevent styes and other infections like colds.
Keep Eyelids Clean
Avoid rubbing your eyes with hands or clothing.
Always wash your hands before touching your eyes.
Proper Use of Cosmetics
Keep makeup tools clean and avoid using expired cosmetics.
Boost Immunity
Maintain a healthy diet and regular exercise to strengthen immunity.
Warm compresses can help relieve styes, dry eyes, and even muscle tension.
