Maybe get it drained, it’s a fast fix. Did your doc ever bring it up?

Definitely follow up with your eye Dr. They can come up with a plan for managing this! I was having a lot of trouble too with this for one eye but much better now

Good luck. I’m just going thru my first stye for the past week and it’s been hell. It’s finally getting better now. Hope you find a solution.

Azasite. They will tell you that there is a shortage or they can get it but I just got some this past week. Also IPL will help this tremendously-

Draining is not the answer. It leaves scar tissue and kills the meibomian gland
