Ive been at the eye casulty half of the day today
I have a Chalazion in my right eye
Its a blockage of a gland near my tear duct caused by the oils and fluids in the eye. Surprisingly 1 out of 4 people get them but in most cases don't become inflamed or infected. According to the practitioner nurse mine is verging on infection but l caught it in the early stages.
Treatment Needed warm compresses gentle massage of the upper eye lid ibuprofen for inflamation and the antibiotics for a week.
Its swollen and tender and so l can't see too well out of my right eye because of the swelling and thats my sighting eye when l go out photographing.
If it gets worse im to go to GP and get him to refer me back to the eye casulty
