Stye Eye Comments By: Gill Dearsley on 2009-12-05
I have read with interest, the teabag idea to treat my Stye! It started coming a couple of days ago and now has a lump, like small ball bearing on the inner lower lid of one of my eyes! I woke up with puffiness underneath my eye, spreading onto my cheek! Well, I've just had a cup of tea and am going to try out the teabag now! Will let you know my result!!

In response to the person who's mom is eye doctor and says tea bag is bad idea. Comments By: Cheriamee on 2009-12-09
After numerous doctor visits and mucho $$. Your mother (Doctor) is wrong. The tea bag works fast and cost me less than a dollar. The medicines the doctor prescribed and the hot compresses made it worse. Not to mention put me in debt! Go Figure!!!!!
 
Its all about Chamomile Comments By: Tony on 2010-08-05
I got a stye on tuesday morning, tried a couple different types of tea bags during the day. minimal relief. Then I read someone's comment about chamomile. I put it on the stye, and in seconds, thats right, seconds, the bump opened and cleared up. Most the swelling went away along with the soreness. That was on Wednesday. Today is Thursday, and its totally cleared up. Man I can't believe how great it worked. I used Bigelow Cozy Chamomile.

Rubbing Gold??? Comments By: Becky on 2009-12-20
I was told by my optician that placing a hot face pad on the eye will ruduce the infection and a cold one will reduce the swelling..........it works!! also the rubbing a wedding ring on the eye is only a myth, it evolved from the original antibiotic that was used to treat a stye was a gold colour, the old wives thought they'd save their hard earned money and just use a ring!!
 
Eye stye and the tea bag! Comments By: Gill Dearsley on 2009-12-20
Well, I tried the thing with the tea bag....um....to no avail! After a week and after it turned into a black eye, I decided to go to the doctor. Guess what? It wasn't a stye at all...it was a meibomian cyst!! I was given antibiotic cream and so far so good!! Thanks for the tip about the stye though, let's hope I don't need it, eh!!??

The teabag method really works!!! Comments By: YourCookieBaker on 2009-12-24
The method worked perfectly,just apply it at least 2 or 3 times a day and it would be back to normal .

I recommend this method to everyone who has a stye!
It really works! :)
