Try some antiseptic ointment for eyes. It's very likely a bacterial infection. Tobramycin eye drops is good, I don't know if it's available without prescription in US. Bacitracin is prescription free in lower doses and should work as well.
Often eye infection goes with mouth infection together, in this case you need and antibiotic treatment.

Try a warm compress.

I've also recently been using an OTC optic antibiotic spray that helps with dry eyes.
I believe that there are a few brands available.

The antibiotic in it might also help it to drain more quickly.

I know that a sty is painful.

Good luck to you.

My mother had a stye. After following doctor's advice to put antibiotic creams on it, she eventually had to have it surgically removed.

Hard to focus with such an enchanting eye 🙃

But I had one of those a couple of years ago

Honestly you should just go to the nearest clinic they will give you sterilized wet napkins used to clean it well.
And an eye dropper that will dissolve and dislodge it.
You won’t feel a thing
Take the medication for like 2 weeks and you’ll be good as new

Yes, I saw below that someone mentioned teabag and yes, those can work well for a few reasons.

"Steep a black or green tea bag in warm water for a few minutes. Let it cool, then place it on the affected eye for 10-15 minutes. The tannins in tea can help to reduce inflammation and soothe irritation"

A warm compress!!! Let it build up to a head and pop it

XXblack88 · Answer

Don't squeeze or pop it it might cause infection or make it worse.

put a warm compress on it for 10 15 minutes several times a day it helps reduce the swelling and promote drainage. you can also use pain reliefer if needed if it worst call you dr and see if he can prescribe a antibiotic

ohsheeT · Answer

Keep your fingers off of it, no makeup. Take a warm washcloth or something and just hold it on there for like 5 to 10 minutes or until the washcloth gets cool wind it app again, do it again, do that like I don't know 510 times a day, if you have to, but it has you have to keep it clean, let it air out. Do it again, they're out. But no make up

Nice eyes by the way yours are as green is mine

Nice222 · Answer

I have had a few of those. Usually warm compresses help. Like a warm wet wash clothe held against your eye. And a doctor can give a prescription for drops or a gel to apply. If this doesn’t work then you will need a specialist to drain it. And this is not fun at all.
good luck and I’m sending positive vibes.

Go to your general practitioner. If it's not a huge deal, they can give you medication. If it's more serious, you would need to go to an ophthalmologist.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

Apply an OTC triple antibiotic ointment 3-4 times daily. Don't use makeup until the stye resolves. If it is not beginning to improve in 3-4 days, consult your primary care physician.

I got them a lot as a lad, but not since I became an adult. I think they're from a vitamin deficiency, so you may have to see your doctor about improving your diet.
