Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
When I woke up this morning, my right eye felt like there may be a small particle under the upper lid.When I blink it seems irritated. I tried blinking fast to try to remove whatever is there. Then I tried washing out the eye with purified water. Is there something else that I may do?

Hi friend,
Based on your description, it seen likely that you developed a style (hordeolum). You might try warm moist compress 3-4 time per day. If the condition does not improve after 4-6 week, you will need to seek ophthalmology evaluation.
