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.
The definition of a chalazion is a lump of the lid that is caused by obstruction of the drainage duct of an oil gland within the upper or lower eyelid. This lump may increase in size over days to weeks and may occasionally become red, warm, or painful.
