Stye is the most common eyelid bump. Styes occur when bacteria get into the oil glands in the eyelids. It is a round, red bump that appears close to your eyelashes. It can make your eyelid feel sore. A stye can also cause you to be sensitive to light and make your eye watery or feel scratchy.
A chalazion is an inflammatory lesion that occurs when the oil-producing glands or tear gland in the eyelids become blocked. A chalazion usually grows further on your eyelid than a stye. It's painless in most cases. It can interfere with your vision depending on where it grows and how big it gets.
Stye is most likely to form near the edge of the eye, where the eyelashes meet the eyelid. The condition is more common in children. Chalazion usually grows further on your eyelid than a stye, it is usually larger and may not hurt.
STYE starts as a red bump that looks like a pimple along the edge of the eyelid. As the stye grows, the eyelid becomes swollen and painful, and the eye may water. Most styes swell for about 3 days before they break open and drain.
Chalazion starts as a firm lump or cyst under the skin of the eyelid. Chalazia often don't hurt. Chalazia grow more slowly than styes. If a chalazion gets large enough, it may affect your vision. The inflammation and swelling may spread to the area surrounding the eye.
