swollen eye lid

swollen eye lid

I consulted an family MD for my swollen eye lid he said it was a stye, he gave me Vigamox .05 that was Wednesday night, I used it all day yesterday and today I am still the same.  The doctor will not be in until Monday now I do not know what to do,  what other medicines would you recommend. I'm 52 and 138 lbs with no medical problems. I do not think Vigamox is working. please advise.

Vigamox will not treat a stye ( a pimple on your eyelid).  Use warm compresses 4 to 5 times per day.  You also probably have blepharitis.   See an ophthalmologist.  Find one on AAO.org
