Stye or hordeolum is a common type of infection of the sebaceous glands of the eyelid that results in a lump. The stye can be distinguished from a chalazion, which tends to imply less inflammatory response and follows a more chronic course. Staphylococcus bacteria is responsible for most of these infections. When a Meibomian gland becomes acutely infected, it produces an internal hordeolum while an external hordeolum represents a localized formation of follicle abscesses.
After one or two days the external stye shows on the lid margin. generally a small boil is visible close to the lash root, surrounded by hyperemia, swelling and oedema.In two to four days the lesion fistulates with secretions.
