Suggest Remedy For Chalazion On The Upper Right Eyelid

Hello. I have a chazalion on my upper right eyelid. It has not gone away for almost 4 months although I have put hot compresses each day and have massaged as I was advised to do. I am currently 6 months pregnant and wanted to know if it was safe to undergo surgery to get it removed?

Hi
I had gone through the question and understand your concern
See , chalazion can be removed by surgery. It is usually removed by giving a small incision over it from inner side of your eyelid , so need to worry about any cosmetic side effct of the surgery.
As far as your pregnancy is concerned , you can get operated ,as there is no risk at all.
Hope this was of help.
Thankyou
