Those who are educated, especially those who are in the medical field know that sty is an infection. Before science and technology became popular and used in the Philippines, people believed that when someone has sty, he peeped on another person while that person is changing his or her clothes, is taking a bath, or doing any activity where being naked can be involved. These days, though many are already knowledgeable about the cause of the sty and what it really is, they may still tend to accuse or tease someone peeping on others because people used to believe that when they were young before they were sent to school and have been so acquainted with that information.
