Stye Basics:
Although the appearance of a stye can be unsightly at times, it is usually harmless. A stye is a small bump that sometimes appear on the outside or inside of the eyelid. A stye is also referred to as a hordeolum.A stye develops from an eyelash follicle or an eyelid oil gland that becomes clogged from excess oil, debris or bacteria. Styes can be a complication of blepharitis but also seem to be brought on by stress.
I have gotten styes on and off. The picture is much worse then the ones I have had. Since kids are back in school this is another reason they should wash their hands often and get plenty of rest. You can put a hot compress on your eye to help get rid of the bump. It's like a pimple on the eyelid.
