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.
A red spot on the bottom eyelid can be a sty, which is a bacterial infection of an oil gland in the eyelid. It can also be a chalazion, which is a blockage of an oil gland causing a painless bump. If the red spot is painful, persistent, or affecting your vision, it's best to see an eye doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
