Chalazion is also known as a blepharocyst. Blepharocysts usually do not require special treatment if they are small in size, but can be treated with surgery or physical therapy if they are recurrent or large in size. If the size of the blepharocyst is small, the child can be observed and followed up, and usually does not need special treatment. If the patient has a foreign body sensation in the eye, physical therapy, such as hot compresses on the eye, can be used to promote the regression of the cyst. If the cyst is large and physical therapy is not effective, the patient can be treated surgically by scraping the contents of the cyst with a spatula under local or general anesthesia. Generally, the posterior wall of the cyst needs to be separated and the cyst should be removed completely to prevent recurrence. It is recommended that children with blepharocysts be seen promptly for evaluation of their condition and treatment as prescribed by their physician.
