Small lesions may not need any treatment.
Usually absorbs spontaneously in 2-8 weeks
Drains through the inner surface of the eyelid
May need intralesion steroid injection
Warm compress 3-5 times per day
Gentle massage of eyelid (do not try and pop it)
Abx not indicated unless lesion is associated with Blepharitis
Optho referral if develops cellulitis or does not respond to treatment.
