What is the best way to get rid of a stye? besides warm presses?

Eye drops : A combination of antibiotic and steroid drops in combination with hot compress 4 times a day. Some doctors add an oral tetracycline and omega 3 which effect the oils.

Suggestions: Besides going to a doctor and getting rx drops, you can try over the counter drops like alaway or zaditor, (ketotifen) and use them 2-4 times a day. You can also keep the rims of your lids clean by lightly brushing them with a wet q-tip after a shower or other application of steamy heat. Try to resist picking at it, because that may make things worse.

Warm compresses.: The best and most successful way is with warm compresses. If it persists or gets very large, it can be surgically incised and drained. Some people have had success with injection of steroid into the stye (this can be very painful with side effects).

Chalazion Treatment: Time is the second best way to treat a chalazion. The natural history is for them to resolve over several months to years. However, rarely other conditions such as sebaceous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma can look like a "stye" therefore evaulation by an ophthalmologist is recommended for chalazia that do not resolve. Medications, injections and surgery can be used to treat chalazia.
