I don't know if this belongs in the Eye and Vision page, but I have an ongoing problem with my eye lids.
I guess it is what you can call a 'pink eye' or 'tea bags.'
I think, somehow, one of the lower eye lids gets infected and it starts to itch. The lid then turns red or pinkish and swells up.
It goes away in about 24-48 hours, but happens way too often. At least once a week. Could be my hair always gets in my eyes and the bacteria of the hair touches the lid or somthing.
What is the cause? The official term of this problem. And how do I get it solved? Treatments?
Advice and/or replies are highly appreciated. Thank you.
