I have a stye. how do i get the pus out if my eye once it ruptures and how long does it take for all of it to come out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Easy exit: Most will come out with the first or second blink. Simply wash your face and normal tear flow will take care of the rest. Infection of the eye will not occur unless the eye is injured. Apply warm soaks to speed up the process.
