I have chalazion which succeeded a stye

2017-09-21 10:18:11
I had stye somewhat 45 days back. And it went off smoothly but developed into a chalazion after the doctor cleaned up the stye (but not completely). It is not painful but there is a small bump on my right eyelid. I consulted a doctor and he said I need a 5 minute chalazion surgery for the same. But I am tensed. I would rather prefer medicines or injections. I am afraid of surgeries and operations. Even the mere thought of surgery kills me. Please help. The chalazion has been there for 20 daysnow

Stye is due to infection of Moll& Zeiss gland & chalazian is due to blockage of meibomian gland .
