Hot Compress To Prevent Eye Chalazion

After applying hot compress on Baby’s swollen left eye for more than a week, the swelling had subsided.  The ophthalmologist had advised us that I should apply hot compress on both Baby’s eyes to prevent occurrence of eye chalazion as she has a high tendency of getting this eye condition.  All I did was to soak a clean hanky with hot water during bath time and apply it on Baby’s eyes twice a day, 2 minutes each time.  I guess I have to incorporate this tedious regimen into Baby’s bath time for the next few years, sigh!

  1. for a few years?????? did the ophthalmologist say why Cassandra has a tendency to develop eye chalazion?

  2. i guess the circulation around the eye are from hot compress reduces another occurence ?

    Barb…. the dr said that some kids are just very prone to getting chalazion. He himself was operated on 4 times during his childhood. I guess that’s why he became an eye doctor 😀

    Elaine…the hot compress unblocks the oil ducts or something to that effect.
