Style on the eyelid is a chronic eye disease that is especially aggravated in summer and spring. During this period, the body is weakened and prone to infections. Most often, in the lower eyelid, barley appears in youth, and disappears with the onset of maturity.
At a more mature age, a disease such as barley is quite rare and appears for a short time. This occurs as a result of inflammatory processes, and on the lower eyelid, barley appears when the sebaceous gland or follicles of the lower eyelashes become inflamed. The causative agent of this disease is staphylococcus aureus.
In most cases, a disease such as barley can begin as a result of hypothermia, reduced immunity (for example, in the spring and summer), if there is any viral infection in the body, etc.
What are the signs that you have barley?
- Swollen lower eyelid. If the inflammatory process is concentrated in the corners of the orbit, then swelling of the face is possible.
- The pimple-like formation in the corner of the eye is noticeably reddened, and the lower edge of the entire eye is also reddened.
- If you touch the reddened place, you can feel a sharppain.
- Touching the lower eyelid, you feel that it is hot, because there is purulent inflammation inside, and the temperature in this place is much higher than in the body as a whole.
- A stye-protruded eye sometimes sees worse because it waters and the eyelid itself cannot fully open.
Reasons due to which barley may pop out on the lower eyelid:
- sharp hypothermia of the whole body (for example, as a result of a temperature difference when driving in a car with open windows);
- riding a motorcycle without goggles in windy conditions;
- when using low-quality cosmetics;
- sharp cooling of the legs.
