Styes, commonly referred to as hordeola, and chalazia are two types of eyelid bumps that can be frustrating to deal with. Here’s what you need to know:
Hordeola are red, painful, and caused by a bacterial infection of the meibomian gland.
Chalazia, on the other hand, are not typically painful. They result from a blocked meibomian gland and are more inflammatory, developing deeper in the eyelid tissue.
At inVista, we offer an advanced solution for treating these bumps using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy.
IPL is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment with anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. It’s an excellent option for managing chalazia, especially:
Acute chalazia (less than 2 weeks old): Often resolve within 3-5 days after treatment.
Chronic chalazia: May require 2-3 sessions for complete resolution.
