What should i do for white pus under center of eyelid?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Heat, hygiene: This is most likely a stye - a blocked gland which has taken on a load of bacteria thus the pus. If the eye is unaffected, and the vision remains normal, you can treat this by cleaning your face and then applying very warm soaks (washcloth in very warm but not hot water) for 4 minutes at a time and 5 times per day. If gone - fine. If persistent see your ophthalmologist.

Probable stye: If your vision is normal and the eye is not red, then this is probably a stye of the eyelid. Treat this with applied heat using a washcloth soaked under the very warm water tap used for 4 minutes at a time for about 5 times per day. If persistent after two to three days, see your ophthalmolgist.
