Chalazion

A Chalazion is a gradually increasing, painless nodule or swelling on the upper or lower eyelid that appears due to the blockage of an oil gland (Meibomian gland).The meibomian gland secretes oil. This oil along with tears lubricate the eyelids and protects the eyes.

A Chalazion may develop after a stye. A stye is nothing but an infection of the Meibomian gland (internal stye) or infection of eyelash follicle or sweat gland (external stye). A stye is a painful condition, whereas Chalazion is mostly painless. A Chalazion may disappear without any treatment but, in most of the patients, it tends to recur even after removing it surgically. Homeopathy can treat this tendency of recurrent stye or Chalazion.
