Answer: Chalazion Management 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.The majority of patients respond rapidly to surgical treatment. Rarely, swelling and redness may persist following chalazion drainage. In some cases, secondary procedures may be necessary, but the vast majority of patients continue to improve with conservative management.It appears that your post-operative course has been extremely complicated. Under these circumstances, it's important to be patient and maintain close contact with your surgeon. Your surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that results in the resolution of this problem.

Answer: Blepharitis Chalazions develop from chronic inflammation at the eyelid margin, and it appears you still have inflammation in your eyelid. I would suggest using frequent warm compresses (at least twice daily) and cleaning the eyelashes. Some patients have benefited from treatments like Avenova scrubs, Lipoflow treatments or oral antibiotics like doxycycline to control the inflammation, so you can consider speaking with your physician about those.
