So I got my first ever stye in my good non Lasik eye this week. I saw a regular Dr. as my eye Dr. couldn't take me, and I was glad to hear that it was nothing serious, despite the pain!! Bein Irish I used the folk remedy of a grated potato and it seemed to d othe trick, though I was not happy to feel my Lasik eye start to burn in sympathy.
Why question though is about the connection between dry eye and styes. I have ocular rosacea and MGD in both eyes but only have eye issues in my Lasik eye. Would warm compresses, massages and scrubs prevent a new stye returning? Growing up I always remember there were a couple of kids on the street who got them the whole time, is this likely to be the case or can proper lid hygene prevent them returning.
Thanks for your thouhts.
