i had one on my right upper eye lid, it has been a week. I've undergone three I&C for chalazion for my left eye so I know how it works, but this time, I don't want to have another one if it will be gone on its own. I have chalazion in my upper eye lid. I just treat it warm compress and hopes it will be gone on its own since i do not want to undergo another I&C. I also have dry eyes, will using artificial tears have an effect on my chalazion now? Do you think it's okay to use it while i have chalazion?

Answer: When to remove eyelid stye, chalazion? Most chalazions go away on their own, however, that usually happens within the first few hours to days. The longer they stay, the larger they are, the less chance they will go away. I had my own eyelid chalazion drained (by another surgeon) so it is common and safe when necessary.

Answer: Can Chalazion Be Gone on Its Own? Chalazion can definitely be managed without surgery. A combination of a spoon warmed in hot water and soft massage is enough in most cases. You should be safe with artificial tears, but check you don't have an allergy to them before use. if this fails to settle things down, you may need surgical treatment again - sorry!

Answer: Medical and Surgical Treatment Of Chalazions A chalazion is actually a meibomian cyst caused by the blockage of a meibomian gland in the upper or lower eyelid. This is also the reason why patients with chalazions frequently suffer from symptoms of dry eyes. There is no contraindication to using natural tears when a patient has a chalazion. Chalazions can be treated conservatively with warm compresses, topical antibiotic ointment and antibiotic eye drops that contain steroids. In some cases, an injection of dilute kenalog can help as well. While chalazions can resolve spontaneously, there is also a high incidence of recurrence. In these cases, surgical excision may be indicated.

Answer: Chalazion Remedies This is a good question. Anything foreign in the eye can increase small infections. I would recommend using sterile saline for some thing and seeing if that helps. Getting the advice of an ophthalmologist is a good idea also so that they can assess the rest of the eye.

Answer: The Treatment Of Chalazions A Chalazion occurs when eyelid mucous glands become clogged. This results in cystic lesions on the under surface of the eyelid which can cause pain and discomfort.The vast majority of chalazions respond to conservative management. In most cases, this involves warm compresses and antibiotic ointments. Under these circumstances, these lesions point to the surface and drain spontaneously. In some cases, lesions are persistent and surgical drainage is necessary.When this situation arises, it's appropriate to consult a board certified plastic surgeon. This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your physical findings and achieves your aesthetic goals.
