There are a number of tiny glands in the eyelids which open through ducts onto the lid margins near the base of the eyelashes. An obstruction of the ducts of any of these glands prevents the secretions of the glands from coming out. The secretions then accumulate and the gland may get inflamed.
A stye is a small red painful boil that occurs in the eyelid at the base of an eyelash. It occurs due to an acute infection within the glands at the eyelid.
It is also called external hordeolum. Multiple styes may be present and occasionally it may involve the entire lid margin.
Uncorrected spectacle number.
Use of wrong number spectacles.
Eyestrain due to prolonged near work or eye muscle weakness or imbalance.
Blepharitis which is a chronic infection with dandruff- like flecks over the eyelashes or lid edges.
Exposure to dust or pollution.
Diabetes.
Hormonal changes especially around puberty, in women or on treatment with hormonal medicines.
Skin conditions like acne rosacea
Sometimes there may be no obvious cause.
A careful search by thorough history and examination is done in our clinic to find any causative factor. Several tests to pinpoint any causative factors so that remedial measures can be taken are carried out and may include :
History.
Number checkup to find correct spectacle power.
Tests for checking eye muscle power and muscle imbalance between
the eyes.
Slit lamp bio microscopic examination.
Conjunctival cytology.
Blood sugar measurement.
Absolutely love how understanding Dr. Kumud Raut is. The only place where I have not been told about only the process of getting a surgery, but rather they insist on educating about how the eye functions and the importance of having a healthy eye before any surgery.

This is the best eye clinic ever. It's amazing how every staff is so caring. The faculty is simply top class and Dr. Aditya Raut is the best. His treatment is par excellence, but even more than more than that, he is a great human being.
