How long do you wear the eye patch for after surgery for a chalazion?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
24 hours: The patch can be removed in 24 hours or less. I typically do not patch after the chalazion removal.

Agree as stated: You may have been given an ointment or drops to use once the patch is off. Keep the area clean and don't forget the follow-up visit if you were asked to come back.
