Common Questions and Answers about Tobradex chalazion

tobradex

Avatar n tn I was told that the eye itself looked very good...no infection/abrasions noted. I was put on Tobradex drops for pain management. I have not noticed any improvement with my eye since using the drops. I'm wanting to know if I should be seen by an opthamologist. Does an opthamologist treat problems associated with the eyelids/muscles when the eye appears to be healthy?
Avatar m tn Today I called the doctor here She said that the whitish pimple on the Chalazion could be s sign that it might drain. Said to put TOBRADEX onitment on it. I see her on Thursday. Thanks again.
Avatar n tn Would you recommend an 19 mo. old infant to use Tobradex for a chalazion? We just got a rx but we are not sure this is safe for an infant under two years old. The side effects for long term use mention glaucoma and vision problems? Should I be concerned about this?
Avatar m tn I'm taking Doxycycline 100 mg/24 h to treat recurrent chalazion/internal hordeolum but this seems not to help. I've been told that Doxycycline doesn't help treat acute bacterial infection but MGD. I have a bit of eye discharge in the mornings. I guess this is due to the draining internal hordeolum. Would Cephalexin 500mg or Tobrex be better options to treat this condition?
Avatar m tn Hi All, Around 4-5 months ago, i experienced pain in my upper cheek (some redness as well), then when it subsided, it kind of moved up to my eyelid and became a Chalazion. My opthalmologist removed it surgically. After a 2 months, i had similar pain, but only at the corner of my eye. The pain subsided, then a lump formed (different site from my previous Chalazion) turning out to be a Stye.
Avatar n tn Yes, I've had my stye for 6 months now, I've beed trying to get rid of it. I went to an eye doctor, he said it was a "pimple"... that sounds like BS to me. He also prescribed me TobraDex Stye Ointment, but I've seen NO results out of it. I also tried the warm compress, but my stye is too old and solid to react to it.
Avatar m tn After i was injected triamcinolone acetonide in one chalazion in my upper eyelid a year and a half ago, infection spread to my lower eyelid and conjunctiva. Since then I have been using several antibiotics with little help: ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, monofloxacin, fusicid acid, chlortetracycline... Also anti-inflamatory drugs like Tobradex and FML which help reduce inflamation but not treat the cause.
Avatar m tn Hi, I'm a 25 year old male with blepharitis. Eight months ago I started getting multiple chalazion on my left upper eyelid which were small and didn't bother me. At the time, I was only cleaning my eyelids once per day. But then around last December of 2016 my upper left eyelid developed another chalazion which was larger (about the size of a m&m) which was causing astigmatism and blurry vision.
Avatar n tn My daughter, 2 years old, went to an eye md on Monday 1/25/2010 and she says my daughter has chalazion, she prescribed tobradex oinment to apply on the surface of the chalazion. We started the med on Tuesday night and today Wedesday there were oozy stuff (some blodd) in the chalazion area. Is that normal? should i continue with the oinment? would there be a scar after this? is there anything i can do to prevent this later on? thank you so much here's a picture of her eye [IMG]http://img.
Avatar f tn The tobradex is completely out of your system after 6 days. But your symptoms are very disturbing. I would return for another exam or seek a second opinion with another ophthalmologist.
Avatar n tn I had an eye infection(eye redness) and my doctor pescribed me Tobradex for 5 days. The eye redness is gone now but I'm having problem now on my right eye Problems are blurred vision ,eye pain upon eye movement and a sensitivity to light. I searched on Google and found in many articles that the eye blurriness is one of the side effects of using Tobradex. My question is there anyone had the same problem of blurry vision? what precautions to take ? Is your eye is now ok?
Avatar n tn Back in December I developed a chalazion in my upper eye lid. Before the chalazion formed I had 20/15 vision in that eye. My doctor told me that the chalazion was pushing on my cornea causing a temporary astigmatism and that after the chalazion was removed my vision would return. Its been four months since my surgery and I still have my astigmatism. My vision fluctuates from being clear at times (most notably when I first wake up) and more blurry and distorted at others.
Avatar n tn I have a chalazion in my lower eyelid,and what if blood from somebody elese while talking drops in my eyelid and comes in contact with my chalazion,is there any risk and ia chalazion considered a wound or something
Avatar m tn Its been almost 3 weeks now since I have suffered from chalazion on my left upper eyelid. It was cured on the 4th day but I have noticed that it altered the shape of my eyelid. Im suspecting it might be a slight droopy eyelid. This is the first time i had a chalazion. Can chalazions cause droopy eyelids or cause the eyelid shape to change in anyways permanantely?
Avatar n tn I am planning on getting a surgery for a chalazion which I have had a for a few months now. I wanted to know how long can I except swelling to last after this procedure? ( 1 week, several weeks, months). Thanks!
Avatar f tn So i have been rubbing a gold wedding ring on my chalazion and i was wondering if you think that it would help get rid of the chalazion. I heard that it works on a sty, so i tried it on my chalazion. To be honest, i have seen a difference since i have started doing it. It is much smaller/flatter now.
Avatar n tn I had eye surgery a month ago on 7/24/09. My doctor(opthamologist) pescibed tobradex to be used 4X daily. I put these eye drops in as directd. I have been using them now for a month. How long do I have to use this medicine? I am also using a tobradex ointment at bedtime. Can you plesae let me know? Frank.
Avatar m tn I've had astigmatism in my 20/20 right eye due to styes and chalazion since november 2012. I've had chalazion cut out twice since november, swelling is down, still have astigmatism. I try to do hot compresses often, they don't seem to do much. I'm going to talk to MD about having the corneal topography scan done. I've used steroid drops. Any help or similar situations would be appreciated. Thanks.
Avatar f tn A chalazion is filled with firm, hard to remove oil and inflammatory material. It does not drain like a stye which is filled with pus. Eyelid surgery for a chalazion involve local anesthetic injection, putting on a round 'chalazion clamp" making a X shaped incision on the back of the lid (usually sometimes front) and using a 'chalazion currette' to scrape out the 'granulaion tissue" often a steroid is injection in the remainder of the chalazia.
Avatar f tn I have a chalazion on my upper eyelid. It's been there from 4 months ago. I had steroid injection but it didn't disappear, then I had surgery to remove it, About 1 month after surgery the chalazia returned. What should i do now: another injection or surgery or keep routin treatment such as hot compress?
Avatar m tn I'm a healthy 27y/o male with a pea size chalazion on lower eyelid for about 4 months. Started out with an infection (puffy, red) - went to the health clinic and was prescribed 5 days doxycycline.. infection improved but chalazion did not... prescribed Abs for another 14 days. No improvement.

Avatar f tn Both lower lids become puffy, a little bit itchy, red, wrinkled and visibly dry. I went to ophthalmologist and was prescribed Tobradex (antibiotic/corticosteroid). This medication helped after I used it for a couple of weeks. I stopped using it, and everything was fine for a while, my lower eyelids were back to normal, without that awful wrinkles and puffiness and redness. But in about 10-14 days the problem started again. I again used Tobradex for about 3-4 days.
