About Stye

• A stye is a small, inflamed boil on the eyelid.
  It may affect the skin of the eyebrows or the
  eyelids, more commonly the lower lid.
• Usually stye is an inflamed hair follicle or an
  infection of a sebaceous gland in the edge of the
  eyelid.
• In Ayurveda, it is known as anjananamika.

3
Causes

• Stye is often caused due to ill health,
  conjunctivitis and infection of the eyelid. The
  infecting organism is usually a staphylococcus
  bacterium.
• Infection of the hair follicles of the eyelid
  leads to blockage of the hair follicles.

4

• Due to uncleanliness, lack of hygiene and dirt,
  sebaceous glands near the eye lids can also get
  blocked and provide a conducive environment for
  the growth of infective organisms.
• This is often seen among children who keep
  suffering from it repeatedly. Constant rubbing of
  eyes, sleep deprivation and poor nutrition also
  contribute in causing stye.

• Apply pure ghee or honey on stye. It helps to
  speed up the healing process.

  then apply this on the style like a poultice
  after it cools down. It is very effective in
