Do You Keep Getting Styes? You Need to Do This #eyelids A stye, or hordeolum, is a painful, red bump that typically forms on the edge of the eyelid. It is caused by an infection of the oil glands in the eyelids. Here's an overview of what leads to the development of a stye: Bacterial Infection: Styes are commonly caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, which infects the oil glands in the eyelids. Blockage of Gland Ducts: The oil glands (meibomian glands) along the eyelid margins can become blocked, preventing the natural flow of oils onto the eye's surface. Accumulation of Secretions: When the ducts are blocked, oils and other secretions build up within the glands, creating an environment conducive to bacterial growth. Eyelash Follicle Involvement: Styes can also develop when the follicles of eyelashes become infected, leading to the formation of a painful lump. Poor Eyelid Hygiene: Inadequate eyelid hygiene, such as not removing eye makeup or not cleaning the eyelids properly, can contribute to the development of styes. Rubbing Eyes with Dirty Hands: Touching or rubbing the eyes with unwashed hands can introduce bacteria, increasing the risk of stye formation. Contact Lenses: Improper use or hygiene of contact lenses may also contribute to stye development. Weakened Immune System: Individuals with weakened immune systems may be more susceptible to styes. Chronic Blepharitis: Conditions like chronic blepharitis, inflammation of the eyelids, can increase the likelihood of styes. While styes are often harmless and resolve on their own, it's essential to avoid squeezing or attempting to pop them, as this can lead to further complications. #Stye #EyeHealth #BacterialInfection #MeibomianGlands #EyelidHygiene #EyeCareTips #StaphylococcusAureus #EyeInfections #EyelidInflammation #EyeConditions #HealthAwareness #Blepharitis #VisionWellness #EyeHygiene #ContactLensCare #EyeMakeupTips #InflammatoryEyeIssues #StyeCauses #EyeComfort #OpticalHealth #fyp #fypシ #medicine
