Initial treatment of chalazion

Chalazion is a relatively common disease in ophthalmology, also known as blepharocyst, which is a sterile inflammatory disease, usually due to the dysfunction of the blepharoplasty gland, resulting in the accumulation of secretions of the blepharoplasty gland in the eyelid of the subcutaneous can not be discharged before the formation of localized lumps. In the early stage of the disease, it is generally recommended to give conservative treatment, using warm water towels for localized hot compresses, which can promote the function of the blepharosphenoid glands to recover, so that the secretions of the blepharosphenoid glands can be gradually discharged or absorbed, so that the chalazion can be returned to normal. If conservative treatment is not effective or the chalazion is large, surgery can be considered. This is a very minor outpatient procedure that takes about 20 minutes to perform, and the patient will return to normal shortly after the procedure.
