Hello
It seems from the history that you have undergone chalazion surgery about 2 weeks ago and since last 2 days you are having redness of eyes with swelling and pain of the eye lid. Chalazion surgery will not cause pain but secondary infection can lead to these symptoms.
These symptoms indicate inflammation of the preseptal tissues of the eyelid.
The treatment is by use of antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
