Hello Anushya Ji,

To treat a chalazion or stye, start with warm compresses on the affected area for 10-15 minutes, several times a day—this can help reduce swelling and promote drainage. Gently massaging after the compress may also aid drainage. Avoid squeezing a stye, as this can spread infection. Over-the-counter antibiotic ointments or lubricating eye drops can help. If symptoms persist, consult an ophthalmologist; they may recommend further treatment like drainage or medication.

For specialist help, HexaHealth can connect you with an experienced ophthalmologist.
