The word “barley” refers to both a cereal plant and an inflammatory disease of the eyelids. When it appears, a small painful swelling forms, which can develop into swelling or suppuration. This disease is associated with infection by bacteria, usually staphylococcus, although it can also develop against the background of decreased immunity, and there is probably no person who has not had it at least once. It is not surprising that this unpleasant disease can become the subject of a dream. Most dream interpreters attribute this image to a negative one that attracts problems. However, since pus in a dream can be symbolic of money, the appearance of stye is often considered a harbinger of good luck or receiving money.

Treatment of stye - how to get rid of it quickly
It is regrettable to state this (and in the 21st century it is also awkward), but the most common approach to the treatment of gordeolum is its self-medication through countless folk, suggested by someone or read somewhere, “tested”, “Kremlin”, “grandmother’s” and others similar methods. The fact is that barley, as a local focus of acute bacterial infection, can be suppressed by the body’s own immune system within 7-8 days, which is what is attributed to “miracle” remedies.
Only with repeated, multiple, painful and violent, often recurrent, complicated forms of hordeolum do patients realize the need to seek professional ophthalmological help, which in these cases often requires surgical intervention.
In addition, precisely because of its bacterial nature, acute course and dangerous localization (the maxillofacial zone is extremely richly innervated and vascularized, not to mention the “direct communication” of the eye with the brain), a banal hordeolum can lead to extremely serious consequences, including lethal outcome.
For example, when trying to independently squeeze out purulent contents, the infectious agent can penetrate the local circulatory system and lymphatic ducts, ultimately causing fatal or disabling inflammation of the meninges or general sepsis. Such a development of events is quite rare, but quite possible and by no means unique.
Therefore, it is wisest not to take risks. When treating barley, local procedures are usually prescribed using ethyl alcohol or an alcohol solution of the well-known brilliant green, as well as drops and rinses containing antibiotics. These can be eye drops "Levomycetin", "Tobrex", "Albucid" and many others. (selected individually by the doctor, based on a number of factors).
The set of measures may also include an antibiotic eye ointment - it is usually applied before bedtime (Tetracycline eye ointment, Floxal, etc.). With any use of antibiotics, incl. When treating barley, it is extremely important to follow the dosage and duration of treatment prescribed by your doctor (regardless of signs of improvement), because With any unauthorized modifications of the therapeutic regimen, the risk of “healing” and the formation of drug-resistant bacterial strains sharply increases, which is a direct danger not only for the patient himself, but also for the population as a whole.
Sonarium
Barley is a multi-valued dream, the interpretations of which can vary significantly. Seeing inflammation of your eyelid in a dream is, first of all, a reason to take measures to prevent the appearance of real stye. It is possible that some other disease may develop. Treating your own stye in a dream is a search for a way out of a dead-end situation; treating someone else means helping a loved one, who, in turn, will not remain in debt to you and will also be able to help in difficult times.
The interpretation of a dream about barley also depends on the personality of the dreamer. For young girls, this may mean the appearance in their life of a person who, on the one hand, is pleasant, but essentially obsessive. Such a dream warns women about the need to improve mutual understanding with their husband and that his good intentions can lead to unpleasant consequences. For men, such a dream usually concerns their affairs at work. Festering barley can dream of unexpectedly receiving money. If barley prevents you from looking, then beware that your competitors do not give you advice that could ruin your career.
What not to do with barley
Under no circumstances try to squeeze out the abscess. Purulent contents can spread through the blood throughout the entire eye, which leads to blood poisoning, eyelid abscess and other extremely dangerous consequences.
If an abscess appears, it is also not recommended:
- rub and comb your eyes;
- perform any manipulations with dirty hands;
- apply cosmetics;
- use contact lenses;
- warm or cool the site of inflammation.
How did you dream about stye on your eye?
It is quite logical that many interpreters take into account the smallest details when deciphering a dream. For example, you should definitely pay attention to the extent of damage to the organ of vision.
Big
If the infiltration has matured and acquired impressive parameters, according to the Ukrainian Dream Book, the dreamer will experience a period of calm and material well-being.
The family dream book regards large barley as a sign of an imminent move to another country.
But such a dream, especially if the stye opens on its own, can be a harbinger of troubles in the family.
Huge
A purulent formation on one eyelid of gigantic size may be an omen of a pleasant surprise. It is possible that the dreamer will be offered a position at work that he did not even dare to dream about.
Some dream books interpret the appearance of huge barley as a warning that relatives will soon come for another visit.
Small
If a person dreamed that a small stye appeared on his eye, which did not cause significant inconvenience, then most likely he would have to go in search of new knowledge. Perhaps these will be refresher courses.
With pus
According to the Modern Dream Book, stye filled with purulent contents is a dream of a grand party with old friends. Their visit will be a complete surprise for the dreamer.
With blood
Seeing blood in a dream is an unkind sign. If, when opening the barley, there was a lot of blood in the dream, then according to the Family Dream Book the dreamer will face major troubles at work or in his personal life.
dream book - eyes
they mean a person’s faith and his reason, with which he clearly distinguishes the True Path from the path of error. Whoever sees many eyes on his body, then this is an increase in faith, piety and righteousness. And whoever sees that his eyes are made of iron will be exposed and heavy worries will befall him. Whoever sees that his vision has become sharper and stronger, then secrecy from faith and religion is better than openness, and this is also a sign of the strength of his mind and insight. Whoever sees a thorn in his eye will suffer sorrow or separation from those who are dear to him. Loss of vision is a sign that punishment will befall him from Allah Almighty. And if he sees redness in his eye, then he will be overcome with anger or rage because of some incident that will ever happen to him. Losing your eyes in a dream means the death of your own child. becoming blind in a dream means deviating from the truth, weakening faith and piety. The Koran says: “It is their eyes that are blind, and their hearts that are in their breasts are blind.” (Sura Hajj, 46). To look sideways and intently in a dream means to experience hatred towards the one on whom the gaze is directed. Eyes on the heart - to purity, purity and complacency. And the brighter the eyes shine, the more strongly these qualities appear. Seeing blue eyes means something new will happen; green - a person can change his religion; black - religiosity, piety of a person; blue - impiety.
Symptoms of the disease
The first signs of stye are usually local redness on the eyelid, accompanied by itching and/or pain. The affected area quickly swells, taking on the characteristic appearance of a mound with a yellow center and remaining painful.
There may be a fairly significant increase in temperature (up to 38 degrees or higher), headache, lacrimation, swelling of nearby lymph nodes (especially with “internal” barley - see below), a feeling of a foreign body and other uncomfortable sensations. After a few days, the hordeolum is opened at the exit point of the fistula canal; purulent contents and particles of necrotic tissue are evacuated out, after which the symptoms are quickly reduced and soon disappear without a trace.
For an experienced ophthalmologist, establishing a diagnosis, as a rule, is not difficult: the clinical picture is well studied and varies slightly from case to case.
There are certain criteria for the differential diagnosis of typical barley:
- with meibomite, or “internal” barley (in particular, with a deeper location of the lesion, the purulent center opens not on the skin, but on the conjunctival surface of the eyelid);
- with inflammation of the lacrimal gland (one of the signs is the absence of a clear localization of inflammation - usually the entire eyelid swells, in severe cases blocking the main optical axis of the eye);
- with chalazion, or blockage of the meibomian gland - with this independent disease, the swollen area becomes practically painless in the days immediately following the manifestation, but can, unlike barley, remain unchanged for many months;
- with some others, incl. malignant, tumor neoplasms.
Other dream plots about stye on the eye
It is known that dreams obey completely different laws than the events of real life. For this reason, we often have dreams with a non-standard plot. For example, if a person managed to independently cope with an abscess on his eye in a dream, in reality he will go on an exciting journey.
- If you dream that the eyelids are dotted with pustules of various sizes, the dream promises the dreamer recognition and respect.
- Burning barley with alcohol in a dream is a bad sign. If the dreamer tries to cauterize an abscess with alcohol, according to the Chinese Dream Book, he will face everyday problems.
- If a person dreams that he is trying to open a mature abscess, such a dream, according to the Esoteric Dream Book, promises a streak of failures.
- Piercing with a needle or squeezing out barley means dissatisfaction with your surroundings. According to Hasse’s dream book, such a dream foreshadows a successful solution to other people’s problems. And Nostradamus’s dream book promises a quick meeting with a childhood friend.
- If a dreamer tries to remove an abscess with a scalpel in a dream, very soon in reality, according to Kananita’s dream book, he will have to look for a new source of income. Velesov's dream book promises a business trip if you have a dream of similar content.
- Applying ointments to an abscess in a dream means receiving a business offer that is attractive to the dreamer.
- If in a dream the dreamer spits on a stye that has formed on another person’s eye, in real life he will provide significant help to a close friend or relative.
- If the stye that appears on the eye does not bother the dreamer, then in real life a calm period with a stable financial situation is coming.
- To see an abscess on the eye in a dream, which causes discomfort and narrows the view of visibility, according to Aesop’s dream book, such a dream signifies the appearance of unpleasant problems at work. Perhaps management will decide to transfer the dreamer to a lower paid position.
We tried to give an interpretation of the most common versions of dreams about barley. Therefore, it will not be difficult to solve the mysterious dream with the help of the given clues.
Stages of the disease
There are several stages in the development of the disease:
- Infiltration. A small bump appears on the inner or outer surface of the eyelid, which can easily be confused with a speck that has gotten into the eye. In this area, itching, redness, and slight swelling occur, which intensify over time.
- Suppuration. After some time, the swelling increases, fills with pus and causes serious discomfort when touched or blinked.
- Breakthrough of the abscess. In the normal course of the disease, after 3-4 days the abscess ripens and ruptures itself, the contents coming out to the surface of the skin. if this does not happen, the purulent capsule will have to be opened surgically in the doctor’s office.
- Healing. The affected area ceases to be painful, the wound heals, a crust forms, which falls off over the next few days, revealing healthy tissue.
Stye in a child
In children, due to the characteristics of the immune system and their lifestyle, this purulent disease occurs quite often. Inadequate treatment or untimely medical care can provoke eyelid abscess and other equally dangerous complications.
It is important to understand that in children under one year of age, the orbital tissue of the eyeball is especially fragile, so an ordinary stye can turn into an abscess even faster - within a few hours. Therefore, it is important to closely monitor the child’s health and, at the first suspicion of a disease, immediately contact a specialist.
Eye stye: types
- External stye is an inflammation of the hair follicle at the root of the eyelashes. At the beginning of the disease, redness and painful swelling appears on the eyelid at the ciliary edge, which is called infiltrate (accumulation of inflammatory cells). Over the course of several days, the infiltrate “ripens”, pus appears inside it, and the tip of the swelling acquires a yellowish tint. On the 3-4th day, the head of the stye spontaneously opens outward with the release of pus, after which the painful phenomena gradually subside.
- An internal stye (sometimes mistakenly called a “closed stye,” but this is incorrect) is an inflammation of the cartilage around the meibomian glands in the eyelid. A painful infiltrate occurs on the inner surface of the eyelid, a purulent head forms within 2-3 days from the onset of the disease, and on the 3-4th day it opens from the side of the conjunctiva. Subsequently, small scars may remain at the site of the opened internal barley.
Depending on the number of infiltrates (purulent heads), single and multiple styes are distinguished. The occurrence of multiple stye is almost always accompanied by an increase in body temperature and general malaise; it occurs against the background of decreased immunity or other systemic diseases; in such a situation, it is necessary to urgently consult a doctor in order not only to cure the stye, but also to prevent the development of serious complications.
Depending on the nature of the disease, the following are distinguished:
- acute: acute purulent inflammation (properly treated with the help of a doctor: he will be able to select eye drops, procedures, etc.);
- recurrent: it is important to identify the pathogen and determine whether it is resistant to antibiotics. By eliminating the cause, subsequent relapses can be avoided.
Yacht
Modern family dream book according to Freud:
A beautiful yacht under sail on the surface of the water is a symbol of joy. You are in for a fun and carefree holiday away from home. A yacht on the shore means minor setbacks.
If you saw a yacht in a dream, then in reality you will finally be able to free yourself from annoying affairs.
Seeing a yacht with lowered sails or a yacht running aground is a sign of great failure.
Great dream interpreter based on Miller's dream book:
If you saw a yacht in a dream, then in reality you will finally be able to get away from the hustle and bustle and annoying things.
Seeing a yacht with lowered sails or a yacht running aground is a sign of great failure.
Frequent appearance of styes
To prevent recurrent styes, it is necessary, first of all, to examine and eliminate the pathological soil that contributes to relapses of gordeolum: sanitation of foci of chronic infection, relief of exacerbations of chronic somatic diseases, strengthening of general and local immunity, if possible, correction of endocrine background, normalization of diet, etc. d.
Do not neglect to see a doctor if you have this disease. Despite its prevalence and seemingly “harmlessness,” barley can lead to the development of a number of serious complications (cellulitis and abscess of the orbit, sepsis and others). Therefore, at the first signs of illness, contact our ophthalmology center. This will help to quickly cure barley and avoid the unwanted consequences of self-medication.
It is also of great importance to follow basic sanitary and hygienic standards and principles, which in any civilized person should acquire the character of a conscious need and an automated skill from childhood. All these questions will be explained in detail, patiently and, if necessary, repeatedly by the attending ophthalmologist. And it depends only on the patient how to use this simple but very important information.
Complications
If you ignore the disease and do not start treatment on time, there is a high risk of developing the following complications:
- Conjunctivitis is the spread of pus throughout the eyeball and inflammation of the mucous membrane.
- Orbital phlegmon is a purulent inflammation of the orbital tissue of the eyeball. When purulent contents are released, the infection can spread to the deeper layers of the skin and eye tissue.
- Chalazion - stye degenerates into a round formation on the outer side of the eyelid. It is painless, but causes discomfort, as it puts pressure on the eyeball and reduces the quality of vision.
- Vascular plexus thrombosis is a circulatory disorder in the central vein or its branches due to blockage of blood vessels.
- Meningitis is inflammation of the brain due to the spread of infection.
- Sepsis is blood poisoning when purulent contents enter it.
