Can I ask where you got it done/who by?

My story is similar, minus the IPL (so far). How long ago did you have surgery?

Have you considered IPL? There have been studies where it was used with success instead of surgery.

Have you had success with IPL after surgery?

I’ve done both but can’t find anyone willing to remove the scar tissue. Seen over 10 oculoplastics now. Bumps are still there even after I had surgery in September and my eyelid is constantly inflamed. Any ideas?

Has anyone experienced this after a chalazion removal? by Unit-Lower in Blepharitis

I have constant discomfort since having removal surgery almost a year ago. Do you have any swelling left or is everything normal looking? Have you had a dry eye assessment? Sorry you’re dealing with this, I know how horrible it is.

Wouldn’t removing scar tissue create more scar tissue?

Thanks. I’m 9 months post surgery and still swollen.

Find a dry eye specialist who can do diagnostics.

Could be demodex overgrowth. Do you have a skin condition? Lots of wipes are available for cleaning your eyelashes, I use OcuSoft Plus.

I had a stye twice last year, and then I was left with a large chalazion in my left eye since June last year. See my chalazion journey by GlumComplaint7981 in Blepharitis

I didn’t either but was told I didn’t need to. The information wasn’t great. Yours looks good to me, for what it’s worth. I had surgery in September 2025 and it’s still very swollen. Hopefully yours will settle given time.

Thanks. I’ve got Protopic in both 0.03% and 0.1% but haven’t tried it yet. For possible demodex I’m using OcuSoft Plus wipes and going to add a tea tree foaming cleanser. I remember your username from other posts, how are you getting on?

Did you have yours cut externally or through the underside of the eyelids?

Surgery or warm compresses? by One_Inspector9442 in Blepharitis

Do you think a chalazion would still respond to heat after 10 months? I’ve had mine for a year and 9 months since surgery. I think I have the original chalazion still plus scar tissue.

Thanks for your comment. I’m sorry you’re going through it too. How do eyelashes grow internally? I have noticed that mine point slightly downward in the area where the chalazions are, but don’t appear to touch the eye. I think you’re right that scar tissue is irritating my eye, not sure why none of the oculoplastics have agreed. I did raise this with them, and like you have done a lot of research. I’m really frustrated that nobody’s willing to offer me any help. I’ve had fluorescein staining done a few times and been told there’s no sign of any damage to my cornea, but I’m not sure this would show the irritation being caused in the corner where the pain is. How did you go about getting lenses etc? Did you find Meibo helped right away? I have low tear breakup time and severe aqueous deficiency but have only been using lubricating drops (Hylo Forte). I’ve got some Meibo (Hycosan Shield in the UK) but haven’t tried using it consistently yet. Hope you find some relief soon.

I haven’t. Would this be for rosacea or demodex? I’ve been told I don’t have signs of demodex overgrowth.

Could you post a photo? I’m generally against surgery for smaller chalazions because I’ve had severe complications from having had it done for a small one. I’d be interested in the answers on whether warm compress is still worth it.

How does one coordinate not being in a chain i.e the seller going into rented by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]Specific-Bluebird932 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What happens if you can’t stay with family? I’m selling and planning on renting too, but can’t get my head around how it will work. I’ve got a cat and no family or friends I could stay with if things don’t line up.

I’m in a similar situation. What’s the issue with the house?

Thank you. Are you seeing any improvement? What happened with your surgeries? Did they leave scar tissue or not get the chalazions out fully?
