I get a few styes a year, and I have found the best way to get constant heat is too boil water, put in into a small jar (e.g. jam jar), use a towel to hold the body (so you don't burn your hand) and put a few layers of tissue paper over the lid/base and just hold that to the eye. If it starts feeling less warm, take off a layer of tissue (I usually start off with 3 layers to keep it from being too hot). This usually lasts the 10-15 minutes of warmth.

hello my friends im here to share my experience from having a stye personally. I get them every 1-2 years and they usually stay on for months. I was also told if you get styes alot its proabbly from the lack of seafood if you dont eat any. My latest experience was from october to december. As soon as i noticed it getting big enough to be seen i started the hot compress almost 6x a day and kept going to the doctor for medication and ointment. Unfortunately after 3 different doctors and medications i gave up hope. The stye was already on my eye for 2 months so i was getting desperate. I started paying more attention to videos on youtube and home remedies online. Me personally started seeing results the most from washing my stye with baby shampoo 3x a day and also putting tea tree oil on while still doing the hot compress 3x a day. Within a week and a half of doing this i started seeing immediate results way more effective than the doctor and all their medications they recommended. Sorry for the long talk but just hope i can help anybody else going through it! i know the depression and how difficult it can be having it so trust me your not alone.

[@angeldicochea5467]

If you have a severe stye and have had it for a couple of days and cannot stand the pain I highly suggest you read the rest of this comment. About 5 days ago I found out I had a stye and it became to painful to handle. It got to the point where it was impossible to sleep at night and in the rare cases that I would rest, I would wake up with a large amount of discharge surrounding my eye that was impossible to clean without disrupting the stye causing it to worsen. It significantly helps to apply "Bacitracin Zinc and Polymyxin B Sulfate" ointment. Not only does it clean and disinfect the eye, but also relieves most of the pain the stye causes. If you are able to, I highly recommend to ask your doctor for this ointment. If you are struggling to sleep at night because of your stye, this is definitely a great option to decrease the pain. I've been using it for two days now and sometimes I forget it's even there! I really hope this helps!

[@rldickie]

Thank you. I've been developing a stye the last couple of days. No health coverage or money and who the hell wants to be in a doctor's office these days? Watched this video half an hour ago and already enjoying some relief from the discomfort and inflammation. Again, thank you.

[@roxmathie8532]

Woke up this morning with my first stye ever. Boy oh boy what such pain and irritation. Not really sure what it was at first. I hit the internet and learned warm compresses and bought some stye gel in a tube to use (recommended by pharmacist). I also used my beauty face steamer. I hit these techniques pretty hard all day and finally relief within 13 hours. The stye still exist, but has gone down tremendously. I could not find an eye mask nor eye lash cleaner in the stores so, I ordered each of them from Amazon and will get them Tuesday (better late than never). Love your video. Thanks

Hi Dr Eye, Thanks for the best advice on my stye. Never had one in my life and I'm 54. Just writing to suggest a great warm compress idea I worked out that gives a full days heat. They're called Hot Hands toe warmers. A pack of 2 cost $2 max but once the bag is open both must be used as the heat is generated on exposure to oxygen. As they both have adhesive backing to stick in the soles of your feet, i could stick them back to back together and had a perfect round shaped cushion with soft cloth cover. I was able to apply direct to the eye for hours to get really good heat that's almost too hot. If so just wrap in a hankie.

Wash your eye with warm salt water. I like to use sea salt. You might wonder if it stings and i guess it kinda does a little but mosty its just uncomfortable bc it is cleaning the infection, but it will not harm you. You can search on google "salt water for styes" and im sure it will tell u how much to mix with water. Personally i use a lottt of salt to speed up the process. DO NOT TOUCH YOUR EYE UNLESS U ARE CLEANING IT. Just keep it clean, leave it alone, and it will heal. If you have a question about it, you can always ask me and i MIGHT know.

Thank you for this great video. Try making a charcoal poultice with activated charcoal powder. You can buy the capsules and open them up or buy the powder. I use gauze or a small piece of paper towel dampened and put a small amount of dry charcoal powder on it then fold it up and tape it to the skin with a bandaid or skin tape. Pulls out infections. Sometimes you can just wet the gauze on a bandaid and use it on the skin (great for bee or wasp stings too). I carry charcoal capsules in my purse and car. If you plan to sleep with the poultice attached or using the poultice under clothing you need to cover it with plastic so the charcoal will not come out and stain clothing or bedding. You can use charcoal poultices for many infections including an infected tooth. Simply place the gauze with charcoal applied between your cheek and gum next to the infection. Charcoal is the number one remedy for poisoning and all hospitals use it. Every household should have activated charcoal for emergencies. Also relieves indigestion and gas when taken internally. Don't know why I haven't tried it for this stye I've had for 3 days...duh! Wearing a poultice now. I also used a dampened wash cloth with about 1/2 cup of rice and placed in microwave for a minute and then covered it with a paper towel to make it more sterile. Stayed hot for about 10 minutes but had to move it around. It did feel good to my eye. Hope this helps someone. You can buy activated charcoal at the health food store. I buy the capsules online at Puritan's Pride. When on sale it's the cheapest. I give the bottles of capsules away to friends and family so they will always have it on hand. Great for stomach upset. When giving to kids to drink put it in juice in an opaque cup with a straw so they can't see that they are drinking something black. I have given it to my infant grandson when he was crying constantly and I suspected his stomach was upset. I put the charcoal in a small amount of water and then in a medicine syringe. He was crying constantly and he quit crying immediately ...I was amazed! You can find many youtube videos educating you on the use of charcoal. It has so many uses as a natural remedy.

[@123thebasics]

Thank you sooo Much ..... I was using the wash cloth compress not nearly long enough twice a day. When I originally got the style on my upper left eye lid, there was swelling ,some pain. I've never had this problem before but think it maybe a result of some brush on eyelash glue I used the night before the occurrence ...normally don't use brush glue . The lashes where new the glue wasn't and thank goodness it was only one eye. The Dr where I purchase my glasses , the swelling was affecting my vision. He explained a stye to me and removed some puss to reduce the swelling. I did compress 2x a day and dry eye solution . After 2 weeks It was better but not GONE😢. Went back and received a topical ointment to use for 5 days , continue hot compress and if I'm not happy with results will need to see Optometrist . I'm still using the ointment ...7 days pass the 5. After watching your video I'm going to do the heat correctly ,get the eyelid cleaner and give it a little more time. Thanks again👏🏾❤️

My Stye Experience: Hi so I am shy with posting youtube videos so I thought I would just comment my experience with styes and how i got rid of them with no operation done (side note: took me 1 year but had them for 2 years) I got my first small stye in HS never paid attention to it until college where it started getting HUGE, it transferred to the other eye and I tell you it was HUGE. I was very insecure about myself sometimes not wanting to go to school bc the stye was super noticeable & ugly :/ I tried so many ointments, went to the doctor, at home remedies and honestly it's hard to find what worked best for me but I will sum up some of the things i feel worked best 1. hot tea bags: preferably black tea or chamomile (has to be done every night) 2. stye relief cream from rite aid/walgreens 3. VITAMINS for the skin! 4. prescribed eye drops from my doctor...I say I'm not sure what worked from those 4 options bc the first time I got eye drops from the doctor they didn't work but I'm assuming the 2nd time it did plus I was doing the other three things. Let me know if you have any questions about the ointment or vitamins or want to see any BEFORE & AFTER pictures you can DM me on instagram s.tephanie.28 or reply here

When. It pops puss spreads and spreads the I fectio. So don't pop it

[@jem6578]

ive had one before from using old makeup, and just when I thought I would never get a stye again I literally just got one today. not by makeup, but by rubbing my eyes constantly. in the future, make sure you do not use old makeup, don't rub ur eyes unless yk for a fact they're clean, and stay away from using other peoples makeup, skincare products, etc, if they have an eye infection. also make sure ur bed sheets and pillow sheets are clean.

I want to share something which might be useful......my grandmother's mother taught to my parents that if you tie a thread (firmly) on the opposite thumb of your foot in which you have stye, it will go away due to acupressure....like right now I have stye in right eye....so I have tied the thread on the toe of my left foot....it sounds bizzare but it has always worked and stye goes away within a couple of hours....it has also worked for all my friends whom I suggested it....tie the thread near the toe attached to foot

[@Fuzzycap]

It usually happens again because the bacteria clogs the fluid as your pores are more prone

[@shashigowdar6917]

It has to be warm but wet compress every four hours. What worked for me was steamer, I kept the eyes open amd I added essential oils to kill like peppermint oil and theives oil for anti microbial and anti bacterial effects. One can use bacterial topical ointment in a cotton swab and the drops given by doc. You can also wipe with coconut oil all the discharge.

[@kagokadae]

Not a good time to go to the doctor because of the coronavirus so have to find solution on my own. Hope the warm compress helps me.

so what should one do if they can't go out and buy the 30 dollar eyemask? And I've read that the heat should be moist heat. Does the mask provide moist if I am able to get one. Disappointing that all recommendations had a product he's pushing and not a single home remedy.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Hey Bruce, well I wanted to represent the best and most effective methods. This video here also mentions the similar warm compress but also goes over some other methods you may find useful or interesting. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmm7g6WQm954bdU

Thanks for the tips. It is sucks to have a Stye, it started when I was in grade school and now I am adult, still getting a Stye. Very annoying! 😑

Sorry you are having such trouble. Hope it gets better soon.

[@luos691]

My doctor told me that since there is not a lot blood supply to the eye, he would not prescribe oral antibiotics because that would go to the rest of the body but not the eye. Can you comment on this? Please?

[@zhkamran2540]

Cut a clove of garlic and gently rub the garlic on the stye. Make sure you do it 2x. This works quicker then antibiotics and warm compresses.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Can you explain why?

[@lloydjoseph6484]

garlic power !!

[@sandyeskaros8291]

I tried swallowing a small garlic clove and it healed my styes like 3-4 times before, idk why tho!

[@cromana5574]

I guess it has anti-biotic properties, but worried about it near the eye.

[@LaVictoria6751]

Dr. thank you, I appreciate your video. You explain this problem in detail. I think that when you do the demo for wipping off your eyes, you wipe the eyes a bit too harsh. It seems to me that you need to do it more gently. The problem I have is in the internal bottom eyelid of my left eye where I have a large white spot. I went to the Dr. but he didn't prescribe antibiotics, he only recommended the hot compresses.

[@iliketodoeverything5099]

Can’t even close to me eye without it hurting thanks for all the help

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

ouch! that must be pretty bad.

[@mmurphster1235]

Take an old gym sock (make sure it is clean), fill it with a cup of plain white rice and tie it shut. Microwave until desired heat is reached (i usually do about 45 sec) and hold on eye lid until it cools off. I do this multiple times a day as soon as my eye begins to hurt and most of the time, my stye is gone within a day or two.

[@residentevil54460]

They sell some stye ointment or drops at Walmart in a tube it disappears almost immediately honestly

Ive always used hot tea bags to get rid of a stye. Maybe its just the hot compress thing working for me but it works like a charm every time.

[@fabriziodifazio8439]

My daughter has had a big stye on her outer eyelid for over a month now. Antibiotics, compresses, eyelid scrubs, nothing has worked. There's been no improvement whatsoever. And the opthalmologist wants to wait a few more weeks before resorting to draining the stye, so the kid has been miserable because it's so painful. It's incredibly frustrating.

Use warm salt water to clean your eye and do not touch it. If that doesnt work u should see a doctor

[@GiePena]

Did you use any soap to clean the Eye first, before With warm SALT water?

[@charleneibarra2416]

@@serenajocelyns.7473 do u put the sat water directly in ur eye?

[@serenajocelyns.7473]

@@charleneibarra2416 yes. get a cup you can use for this. Go to the sink put hot water in the cup, add the salt. Stir it so the salt dissolves. Then add a little bit of colder water to it so it isnt as hot but make sure its still very warm water or at least just warm. The amount of salt u put just depends on how much your willing to put in there. For ex. in 8oz water id probably put a table spoon of salt. It does burn a little but you will be fine. Our tears naturally have salt in them so its not anything your eyes cant handle. The burn from the salt will go away in a few seconds. Ive gotten styes a couple of times and warm salt water id the ONLY THING THAT HAS WORKED. The salt might even pop the stye the first time you do it if you keep ur eye in the water long enough.

[@maltibweh]

You've got beautiful blue eyes though 😍😉 Ok let me get straight to why I'm here... I've got a stye and I hate the itching, pain and the look. I just started applying heat on the eyelid. It kinda calms the pain and itching. I also learnt how to prevent it from happening. Prevention is better than cure. Thanks Doc for the home remedy. God bless

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Hey Pat! Thanks for watching. I hope the stye starts to feel better.

[@maltibweh]

@@DoctorEyeHealth It's still there and painful. Because of work, I couldn't do the 4 times heat compression. The stye is not growing but I think I'll go for antibiotics even though I don't like antibiotics. ☹️ I'll see my Doctor for prescription. I also couldn't lay my hands on the spray.

VITAMINS for the skin! 4. prescribed eye drops from my doctor...I say I'm not sure what worked from those 4 options bc the first time I got eye drops from the doctor they didn't work but I'm assuming the 2nd time it did plus I was doing the other three things.
