    You can also use teabags to pull infection from parts of the body, notably the eyes. A mother I knew did this to her little boy who often had gooey, irritated eyes. Soak the tea bag in a dish of warm water, and wipe over the eyes for around 5-10 mins as often as needed. Afterward, he came out goo free, and eyes were not red and puffy anymore.

    Teabags also gets rid of stys on your eyes. Use the teabag after making a cup of tea. The teabag should be moist and slightly warm . keep the eye open and bathe the eye around 10 times. Have the teabag in ab eggcup of water to keep it moist. When you’ve bathed the eye do not dry the eye. You can dry around the eye but not the eyelashes or the inner part of the eye. Repeat a couple of times a day for two days max and your sty/ stys will be gone. It has worked for me always.
