Suggest Treatment To Remove Chalazion On Upper Eyelid

Hi, I have a chalazion on my upper eyelid. Some days it seems more visible than others. The eye doctor said it was not infected and that it could be removed surgically. Are there different types of surgical removals? Do you think a certain type of vitamin might help it to disappear? I've tried the hot compresses and antibiotics.

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having chalazion of the eyelid.
The definitive treatment for chalazion is either by intralesional injection of long acting steroids like triamcinolone or by incision and curettage.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
