I get them mostly in the fall. Keep your hands away from your eyes, if you have a habit of rubbing them be sure to wash your hands or use anitbacerial gel. If you get one, take a very warm (as warm as you can handle but not HOT) washcloth and press it on your eye for about 5 minutes a few times a day. The heat will bring out the infection and help it to heal in a couple of days. Also, if you wear eye makeup and you get a stye, get rid of the applicator immediately or wash it if you can. Eye pencils should be tossed if you get one or freeze it to get the infection off it.

How do you prevent getting styes/chalazions in the eyes?
