Do this ✅ not this ❌ from a board certified ophthalmologist.
If you have a stye, or a painful red bump on your eyelid:
âś… use warm compresses with a gentle massage
❌ do not try to squeeze or pop a stye, this can cause an infection
If you have an eyelid twitch:
✅ do stress reducing activities, get a good night’s sleep, and get plenty of hydration
❌ do not drink alcohol and caffeine, this can make eye twitching worse
If you have dry eyes:
âś… use artificial tears and other lubricants to the moisturize the eye
❌ do not use visine, because visine doesn’t fix the underlying problem and consistent use can cause side effects
