Question
What should be taken into account after meibomian gland cyst surgery?
Answer
The patient underwent meibomian gland cyst surgery one week ago, with the left eye surgery performed internally and the right eye surgery done externally due to a larger cyst. During the follow-up visit today, the doctor stated that the recovery is going well and recommended continuing the use of eye drops. Although the guardian noticed some redness and swelling under the child’s lower eyelid, according to the doctor’s assessment, there is no need for special concern. The purpose of using eye drops is to prevent infection, and the redness and swelling under the child’s lower eyelid may not be related to infection.
