Effective Chalazion
Removal & Treatment
Get rid of persistent eyelid lumps safely. We provide medical management and quick, painless clinical procedures to restore your eye's comfort and appearance.
Chalazion vs. Stye
A chalazion is a firm, painless lump caused by a blocked oil gland (Meibomian gland) in the eyelid. Unlike a stye, it is usually not an acute infection but a chronic inflammatory condition that may require professional drainage if it doesn't resolve with warm compresses.
Professional Eyelid Management
If a chalazion persists for more than a few weeks, or begins to blur your vision by pressing on the cornea, clinical intervention becomes necessary. Our ophthalmologists specialize in the careful drainage of these cysts.
We use a "transconjunctival" approach, meaning the procedure is done from the inside of the eyelid, leaving no visible scars on the skin.

Our Clinical Approach
1. Conservative Therapy
For early-stage chalazia, we provide specialized heat therapy instructions and medicated ointments to encourage natural drainage.
2. Intralesional Injections
In certain cases, a small steroid injection can reduce the inflammation and shrink the lump without the need for surgery.
3. Incision & Curettage
The definitive solution for persistent lumps. A minor procedure to thoroughly clean the blocked gland and prevent recurrence.
A Simple 3-Step Solution
Numbing
Local anesthesia is applied to ensure you feel no pain during the process.
Drainage
A tiny internal incision is made to remove the trapped oils and inflammatory tissue.
Protection
An eye patch is applied for a few hours, and you can return home immediately.
