too late for steroid injection?

too late for steroid injection?

ive had a chalazion for almost two years now. i want it removed but would like to avoid surgery if possible. is it too late for me to have a steroid injection? if i have one, what are the chances of my chalazion completely going away?

The best way to get rid of it is with a simple incision and physical removal.  Steroid injection may help but in my experience less likely to do so after two years.  The procedure is not as bad as you think and steroid injections could have some side effects too.  Discuss this at lenght with your ophthalmologist.
