Bacteria of the Eyelid

Since Sunday my right eye has been hurting, but it wasn't until today that I woke up to my eyelid swollen. For the past couple of days it felt like there was something on the inside of my eyelid scratching my eye so today I finally went to the eye doctor.

He told me I have bacteria of the eyelid and that I have to take pills and put major amounts of eye drops in for the next three to four days.

I have been researching my condition and I have found that I possibly have Blepharitis. If you click here you can read all about it.

I am guessing that makeup got in my eye and that is what caused it. I am very lucky that it did not cause pink eye (knock on wood) and that my swollen eye has gone down a bit.
