Treatment of stye in Kharkov

Sty is one of the most common ophthalmic pathologies familiar to almost everyone. This is an infectious inflammation of the sebaceous gland or eyelash hair sac. As a rule, sty almost does not affect visual acuity, but it causes discomfort and pain.

The appearance of sty in children and adults suggests that the immune system is weakened, and an infection (for instance, staphylococcus) is parasitic in the body. People who are diagnosed with disorders in the endocrine system (for instance, diabetes), chronic diseases are at risk.

Causes of sty

Sty on the eyelid may appear due to ophthalmic diseases, hygiene breaches, hypothermia, respiratory diseases. Pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract, helminthic invasions, as well as dermatological skin lesions can provoke this occurrence. The use of poor-quality cosmetics and vitamin deficiency can also lead to inflammation.

Sty in children

If sty appears in a child, you need to visit a pediatric ophthalmologist. Inflammation often appears in children in the setting of immature immunity, hypothermia, as well as due to the development of tonsillitis, sinusitis and blepharitis. Do not self-medicate, because children's eyes are still forming, and seemingly harmless symptoms can lead to serious complications. Incorrect treatment can cause irreparable damage to children's eyesight.
