Explanation:

First and foremost what kind of infection is a Chalazion

A chalazion represents a cyst or lump usually found to be growing slowly within one's eyelid. The characteristic of this cyst is that it does not last for long, usually goes away after a few weeks and it is not usually accompanied by pain. Although there are occasions where it would warrant more urgent measures and treatments

One very effective way of treating or caring for the eye during the infection is to apply warm compresses to it. To do this the person should put a cloth into a bowl of warm water, wring out the water from the cloth and then apply it over the eye for a 10 to 15 minutes period.
