Can blepharoplasty heal itself?

Whether or not a blocked lid gland can heal itself depends on the severity of the condition and cannot be generalized. If the symptoms of blepharoplasty are mild, the blockage can be relieved by applying heat to the eye and will heal on its own without special treatment. Some patients need medications to relieve the symptoms, such as antibiotic drops and glucocorticoid drops, including artificial tears. If the symptoms are very severe, oral antibiotics, such as tetracycline or doxycycline, can also be used, but the medication must be applied under the guidance of a doctor. If the symptoms are still not relieved or worsen, surgical treatment needs to be given, with regular changes of medication after the incision and drainage of the pus, as well as oral anti-inflammatory medication for treatment. In summary, patients with blocked lid glands are advised to visit an ophthalmologist at a regular hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment based on symptoms. It is important to keep the eyelid clean and avoid spicy and stimulating foods.
