It seems to stye , Stye is infection of Moll & zeis gland present in every body eye lids.Stye occurs due to refractive error as book says but practically it doesn't happen & I have seen happening in persons who have no refractive error,there is no cure for recurrent& multiple states,we only prescribe antibiotic orally as well as for local application in form of ointment. Hot fomentation does only help to certain extent.
