Treatments often include a hot compress and sometimes even antibiotics, steroid injection, excision, but there is also new research on light therapy. Find the best stye treatment for your situation and take care of your eye health.<\/p>\n<p>A chalazion is a painless bump or swelling on the eyelid that forms when an oil gland (meibomian gland) becomes blocked and inflamed. Unlike a stye, which is usually painful and caused by an infection at the lash line, a chalazion tends to be firm, slowly enlarges, and rarely hurts. Most chalazia are not contagious and do not damage the eye, though large ones can press on the cornea and blur vision. Initial treatment focuses on warm compresses (10\u201315 minutes, 3\u20134 times a day) and gentle lid massage to help unblock the gland. Over-the-counter lubricating or mild anti-inflammatory drops can soothe irritation, but antibiotic drops usually aren\u2019t needed unless there\u2019s infection. If a chalazion persists after several weeks, an eye doctor may inject a steroid or perform a small incision and drainage under local anesthesia. Surgery is usually quick, with mild swelling or bruising for a few days. Most chalazia heal completely, but they can recur\u2014especially in people with oily skin, blepharitis, rosacea, or chronic eyelid inflammation. Preventive steps include daily lid hygiene (warm washcloths or eyelid cleansers) and treating underlying eyelid or skin conditions. Prognosis is excellent, and chalazia rarely cause serious complications.<\/p>\n<p>New research is also showing support for red light therapy (Low level light therapy) and Intense Pulsed Light therapy for treatment of chalazia. <\/p>\n<p>DISCLAIMER: All content in this video and description including infor\u00adma\u00adtion, opinions, con\u00adtent, ref\u00ader\u00adences, and links is for infor\u00adma\u00adtional pur\u00adposes only.
