Abstract

Chalazion is an eye lid lesion caused by the blockage and swelling of Meibomian glands and are very common in occurrence. Incision and curettage of chalazion is a minor procedure and is recommended for the ones resisting conservative medical treatment. Here an atypical case report of surgical management of post procedural haemorrhage of an upper left eye chalazion in a hypertensive patient is presented. The patient reported with haemorrhage soon after an uneventful chalazion incision procedure. The site of incision was successfully cauterized to manage the bleeding as it did not respond to pressure applications to stop the bleeding. Cauterization is a minimally invasive approach which is effective and safe method to manage post-operative bleeding complications from a chalazion incision.
