How di i fix my upper right eye lid if it's swollen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hot compresses: the most common cause of upper lid swelling is a sty also known as a chalazion or external hordeolum. This is caused by a blocked merbromin gland and usually responds to hot compresses four times daily. More serious cases may require topical or oral antibiotics.
