NATURAL. SUBTLE. YOU.
Remove a persistent chalazion and restore comfort to your eyelid.
Find relief from a persistent eyelid lump that is affecting comfort or getting in the way of clear vision. Chalazion surgery addresses the blocked gland when earlier care has not resolved it, with a focused procedure and practical guidance to help you look after the eye as it heals.

Chalazion surgery is a procedure for a persistent lump caused by a blocked eyelid gland. Examination and a review of previous conservative treatment guide the procedure, which focuses on the affected gland.

Consider chalazion surgery when the lump persists despite appropriate conservative care or affects comfort or vision. An examination confirms the diagnosis and reviews previous treatment before proceeding.

Surgical planning includes an examination, review of your medicines and a discussion of recovery and complications. Risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, dry eyes, asymmetry and changes in eyelid function. Severe eye pain or a change in vision needs urgent assessment.
Here’s what to expect at each stage, from your consultation to your follow-up.

We examine your eyelids and eyes, review your health and medicines, and discuss the treatment options.

The treatment area is marked, cleaned and anaesthesia is given.

The planned surgical correction is completed and bleeding is controlled.

The wound is closed or dressed, recovery is monitored and written aftercare is provided.
Share your medical history, allergies, medicines and previous procedures, and do not stop prescribed medicine unless the prescribing clinician advises it. Arrange transport if sedation is planned, follow fasting instructions and report infection, eye irritation or a change in vision.
Use prescribed eye care, cold compresses and head elevation as directed, protect the wound and seek urgent help for severe pain, bleeding or any visual change.
The eyelid lump reduces as early swelling settles over 1-2 weeks after the blocked gland’s contents are removed. Healing is reviewed over the following weeks, with any residual firmness or treatment mark continuing to soften over time.
Exact treatment planning and pricing are confirmed during consultation.
Prices may vary depending on product, amount, and treatment combination.

Appointments usually take 20-45 minutes. Early changes are usually seen within 1-2 weeks. The wound and scar are usually reviewed over several weeks, with scar maturation continuing for months. Removal can be lasting, but some conditions can recur. Routine wound and scar reviews are arranged, with later treatment only if medically needed.
Discomfort is typically rated 2-3 out of 10. Local anaesthesia is used for the procedure. Downtime is usually 2-7 days. Follow your aftercare guidance when returning to exercise and other activities. Mild swelling usually lasts several days.
