Incision & Curettage (Chalazion/Stye)

Have you developed a persistent lump on your eyelid that causes discomfort, tenderness, or affects your appearance? These common eyelid conditions, often chalazions or stubborn styes, can be frustrating and sometimes painful. While warm compresses can sometimes help, a chalazion might linger, or a stye could be resistant to home remedies. If these lumps don’t resolve on their own, a simple, minor procedure known as incision and curettage can provide quick and effective relief, getting your eyelid back to normal.

At Dr Nor’Ain KPJ Eye Specialist Clinic, we offer efficient and gentle treatment for eyelid lumps like chalazions and styes. Dr Nor’Ain, an experienced ophthalmologist, performs minor eye procedures with precision and a compassionate approach. We understand that even small issues can cause significant discomfort and concern, and our welcoming clinic environment ensures you receive professional and reliable care aimed at quick resolution and relief.

The incision and curettage procedure is a minor, in-clinic treatment. Your eyelid will be numbed with a local anesthetic to ensure you remain comfortable. A very small incision is made, usually on the inside of the eyelid, to drain the contents of the lump. The procedure is quick, typically taking only a few minutes. You can expect minimal downtime and a rapid improvement in both comfort and appearance, allowing you to quickly return to your daily activities with a clear and healthy-looking eyelid.
