Unencapsulated and encapsulated wolf grain in the eye

Wolf's eye, also known as chalazion, is one of the most common skin diseases that can affect any individual regardless of age or gender.

How does lupus manifest itself? It is a small, hard and sometimes painful formation on the eye, especially on the inside of the upper or lower eyelid. It tends to be firm and immobile to the touch. The colour of the lupus is usually close to the colour of the skin, but it can also be red or slightly swollen, and in some cases a small red dot or purulent discharge appears on the surface. The size of the lupus grain can vary from a small pea to a larger nodule.

 

What are the symptoms and manifestations of wolf's pimple on the eyelid?

  • Itching,
  • redness,
  • flaking,
  • rashes,
  • in some cases, pain.

Even though this disease is not infectious, if you notice any of the above symptoms, you should be seen by our top-notch eye doctor as soon as possible .

Wolfsbane: treatment, triggers

The encapsulated wolf's grain occurs directly in the eye, specifically in the cornea, conjunctiva or in the surrounding ocular environment.

How does a wolf's grain form? It can occur as a result of careless handling of contaminated objects such as contaminated towels, cosmetics or hands.

Whether it is wolf or barley grain, immediate medical attention is always required.

A doctor may prescribe eye drops or ointments. The problem, however, is that wolf grain persists on the eyelid for a long time and often requires surgery to remove.

How the surgical removal of wolf's mane takes place in our operating room

Wolf's grain on the upper eyelid, or wolf's grain under the eyelid, will be removed in our surgical suite by an experienced ophthalmologist who is one of the best in the field.

Lower eyelid surgery in our operating room has never been less stressful. During the procedure, the staff can cover you with a warm blanket, you'll be able to listen to your favorite music , and you may even have a loved one present during the procedure . Parents will especially appreciate this if the doctor is removing wolfbane in children. Your overall comfort is important to us.

I go to Dr. Podstolska with my one-year-old daughter. I am very satisfied with her individual approach, willingness to solve even seemingly small things. Of course, she is professional and friendly at the same time. I'm also glad for the pleasant office with a play rug, heating over the changing table, the possibility to drive a stroller up to the office. The care of the nurses and their assistance during appointments is absolutely above and beyond. I also appreciate the texting system that reminds me of my check-up/exam appointment in a timely manner.
