Chalazion
A chalazion is a benign bump on the eyelid that does not cause pain. It forms when secretions from the Meibomian glands build up due to a blockage in their drainage. This buildup leads to the formation of a nodule. It can appear on both the upper and lower eyelid.
Symptoms:
Painless bump.
Redness and swelling of the eyelid.
In rare cases, a chalazion can affect vision if it grows too large, especially if no treatment or surgery is received. It is advisable to visit an ophthalmology specialist.
Causes:
Blockage of the Meibomian glands.
Blepharitis
Rosacea or seborrheic dermatitis.
