KGO Radio talk show host Ronn Owens discusses battle with Parkinson's disease. One of the Bay Area's best-known radio hosts recently revealed he has Parkinson's disease. The entire interview airs Sunday at 10 a.m. on ABC7.
A chalazion is sometimes the aftereffect of a sty. It is less tender but lasts longer. Natural oils from the eyelid's oil glands must drain through ducts out to the eyelashes. If debris blocks this normal drainage, it may cause a sty or chalazion. Sometimes, this debris accumulates because of a condition called blepharitis, a long-standing inflammation of the edges of the eyelids, with redness, thickening and scales and crusts.
A stye is caused by staphlococcal bacteria. This bacterium is found in the nose and is transferred easily to the eye when you rub your nose, then your eye. Styes are not normally harmful to vision and generally heal within a few days.ost chalazia develop farther from the eyelid edge than styes. Although the same treatment used for a stye speeds the healing of a chalazion, the bump may linger for one to several months. If the chalazion remains after several months, your eye doctor may drain it or inject a steroid to facilitate healing. SEE ALSO:
