A member asked:
Can i get an easy to understand explanation of chalazion surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The eyelid is numbed with an injection. After that, there is no discomfort. The chalazion is opened, usually, from the inside of the eyelid and the material in it is removed. The procedure lasts about 15 minutes.
