👁️ Is That Eyelid Lump a Chalazion or a Stye? Know the Difference!

A chalazion is a painless, slow-growing lump caused by a blocked meibomian (oil) gland in the eyelid. Unlike a stye (hordeolum), a chalazion is usually not caused by an active bacterial infection and often improves with simple home care such as warm compresses.

📚 This evidence-based infographic explains:
✅ What a chalazion is
✅ Common causes and risk factors
✅ Signs and symptoms to watch for
✅ How it differs from a stye (hordeolum)
✅ Treatment options and eyelid care
✅ Prevention tips to reduce recurrence
✅ When to see an eye care professional

💡 Did You Know? Most chalazia resolve with warm compresses and good eyelid hygiene. However, if the lump persists, enlarges, affects vision, or keeps recurring, an evaluation by an ophthalmologist is important.

👨‍⚕️ Whether you’re a medical student, nursing student, healthcare professional, or simply interested in eye health, this infographic is a valuable quick-reference guide.
