What Is A Chalazion?

The term chalazion (pronounced ch-la ze-on) is derived from the Greek

word meaning small lump. It refers to a cystic swelling with chronic

inflammation in an eyelid. A gradual enlargement can be felt near the

margin of the lid due to the swelling in one of the eyelid oil glands

(meibomian). Occasionally swelling of the entire eyelid may occur

suddenly.This condition is not to be confused with a " stye " which is

aninfection of a lash gland. When the chalazion is small and without

symptoms,it may disappear on its own. More often it remains, and with

increased size,may cause blurred vision by distorting the shape of

the eye. Ordinarily,the inflammation is a reaction to the trapped oil

secretions and is not caused by bacteria, although it may become

secondarily infected by bacteria.

Chalazions tend to " point " toward the inside of the eyelid.

 

How Are Chalazions treated?

Treatment may involve any one or combinations of the following:

l) Antibiotic and/or steroid drops or injections.

2) Warm compresses, massage or expression of the glandular secretions.

3) Surgical incision or excision.

Treatment is usually curative, although certain individuals are prone

to recurrence. Recurrences at the same place may require a biopsy

with pathological confirmation to make certain that a more serious

problem does not exist.

I know sometimes warm wet compresses several times a day for like 15-20 minutes can help, however, I think there is a homoeopathic remedy that will help, but I don't know what it is, maybe someone here on the list will know.

I have not had any experience with this type of problem, but I was tought that

any type of cyst would respond to

a hot castor oil compress.

Put enough castor oil on a piece of folded flannel to soak it, but not so much

that it drips. Heat it in the

oven (I prefer *not to use a microwave) until it is as warm as can be tolerated

without burning the skin. apply

to the affected area, cover with plastic and a thick towel to keep the heat in.

You may need to use a heating

pad to keep the heat in as in needs to stay warm for 30 minutes.

This must be done every day until the affliction is gone, or for 30 days, then a

3 day respite and another 30

days of treatment.

Compresses of warm lemon verbena infusion will be analgesic and help reduce

swelling and might draw some of the

oil out of the gland. (this I *do have experience with)

Hope this helps some.
