A stye (hordeolum) is an infected eyelash follicle. This will often drain on its own with warm compresses, but may need topical antibiotics or occasionally incision and drainage. More common is a chalazion, which is a mostly painless, red, swollen nodule within the eyelid that is caused by a blocked oil gland. These can resolve by using hot compresses twice daily followed by cleaning the eyelid margins with mild soap and warm water. If they don’t resolve after a few weeks of treatment, steroid injections or incision and drainage are also an option. The danger in a recurring stye is that it may not be a stye at all, but a type of cancer called sebaceous cell carcinoma. You should definitely have a recurring stye checked out by an ophthalmologist.
Blepharitis is inflammation of the eyelids, usually along the margins, with oily particles, crusting and bacteria stuck to the eyelashes near their base. It can cause irritation, itching, redness, and burning or stinging of the eyes. Blepharitis is often seen in patients with rosacea, but most of the time the cause is unknown.
