Prepare a hot/very warm towel or a gauze that is slightly wet. Put that on to the stye 7 or 8 times a day. After that your stye should be gone. In case it isn't, you should contact a medical professional.
First and foremost do NOT try to pop the stye. That is the worst thing to do for it as it will get infected (worse).

You have two options, you can see your doctor and ask them to prescribe you with medicated eye drops that will help clear up the infection. Or, you can use a hot compress (warm wet wash cloth) for 5-10 mins, 3-4 times a day. Make sure that when you use a warm cloth you get a CLEAN one every time. This will help keep from spreading new bacteria. Avoid any make-up or moisturizer in that area. Try really hard not to touch. It should clear up on its own in a few days. If not I strong suggest going to see your doctor.

In uncomplicated stye, you can allow the stye to 'point'. Then you can pull the hair at the base of stye. Pus will come out and stye will heal. With repeated stye, you need to consult the ophthalmologist.


What is a stye how is it caused and how can you heal it?

A stye is a "pimple" on the skin surrounding the eye, particularly the eyelid. It is an infection, but I have found that drinking lots of water can help you get rid of a stye easily. Another way: If you put a teabag (wet with hot water) on the stye, it completely helps the swelling of the stye. Check out the 'Related Links' below for more information.

Most stye do not require antibiotic for resolution. Warm compress for 15 min 3-4 times a day usually does the trick. The problem is finding something warm that can last 15 min. I would tell people use a peeled hard boiled egg and wrap it around a moist towel.

Do visine eye drops help a stye go away on your eye?

Visine eye drops are not typically recommended for treating a stye. Styes are caused by a bacterial infection of the eyelash follicles and usually require warm compresses to help drain the stye. If the stye persists or worsens, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional for proper treatment.
