Dry Eye Treatment

Chalazion Treatment

We are offering a brand new service to Leeds which is the non-invasive, non-surgical treatment for chalazions.

A chalazion is a small, typically painless lump or swelling that appears on the eyelid due to a blocked meibomian gland—the oil glands near the base of the eyelashes. Unlike a stye, which is caused by an infection, a chalazion is more of an inflammatory reaction. Overtime, it can become firm and may blur vision or cause discomfort if it presses against the eyeball.

Common symptoms include:

  • A lump or swelling on the eyelid
  • Mild irritation or tearing
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Blurred vision (if the chalazion is large)

While chalazions can resolve on their own, they often take time or can become persistent and require medical treatment.

Advanced Treatment Options: Tixel &Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT)

At our clinic, we offer an innovative, non-invasive approach to managing chalazions using a combination of Tixel and Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT). These advanced technologies are ideal for promoting healing, reducing inflammation, and restoring proper gland function—without surgery.

Tixel: Targeted Thermal Treatment

Tixel is a cutting-edge device that uses thermo-mechanical action (TMA) to gently deliver controlled heat to the skin and eyelid margins. In chalazion treatment, Tixel helps by:

  • Unblocking meibomian glands by softening thickened oil
  • Stimulating natural drainage of the gland
  • Reducing inflammation without damaging surrounding tissue
  • Enhancing absorption of topical medications if applied post-treatment

This procedure is quick, precise, and well-tolerated—with minimal downtime.
