So far it seems like nothing. I have done this a couple of times. I had no ill effects and no pain. I suppose, though, it depends on how bad it is. Mine have been small, to the order of a couple millimeters. Since all it is is a clogged pour, if you pop it before it becomes infected, and you don't rupture the gland walls, popping it will simply release the backed up oil. If it is larger and/or infected, popping it may release infected puss into your eye, and/or it may rupture the gland walls, causing pain and swelling and infection.

What causes a chalazion?

The gland involved in the formation of a chalazion is a modified sweat gland that lies within the eyelid. This gland produces oil. When this gland becomes blocked, it can rupture and the inflammation process begins. A chalazion is not a sty. A sty can resemble a chalazion in the sense that it is also a lump in the eyelid. However, a sty involves glands and eyelash hair follicles that are closer to the skin surface of the eyelid. In addition, a sty is usually more painful and looks infected.


What does the term chalazion actually mean?
