I went on this procedure twice,once for each eye,and all can say is that you have no reason to worry.surgery may look scary but before surgery you'll get anestetic and you won't feel NOTHING.first day after the procedure you feel like you got hit 2 times by mike tyson,but in 4 days all the swealling and the pain will be gone.I hope i did help :)

[TheLoganLermanLuvr]

Oh my god.....NO! I have some kind on a cyst type bump under my upper eyelid...Um, and my mom wants me to go get it checked out, it's gotten pretty big and sometimes makes my vision a bit hazy, soooo I really don't want to get this done DX

[AlternativeRobbie]

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH. NOOO!!! OMFG!!!!

omg i have to get this done tomorrow wish me luck

[georgiazaccardo]

had this done... TWICE (had one in each eye) .. first time i absolutely bawled my eyes out before hand, the needle was in my eyelid and didn't hurt anywhere near as much as i thought it would, afterwards i felt nothing.. when it was all over i felt a little pain later that night but i was fine. second time the needle was underneath my eye and hurt a little more but completely bearable nothing extreme. if you need this procedure don't worry it is no where near as bad as it looks (and i'm a sook)

@ugglover234567 faggot

[kewldude1991]

I've had one for about 5 months, when it first showed up, it was painful and my lower eyelid was swollen like 5 times its normal size. Every now and then it will act like it's going to get inflamed again. I think I'll just go have it removed. It's so annoying.

From self diagnoses I think I need this! Oddly I only have this "pimple on the eyeball sensation" when I'm tired and about to fall asleep. Never any odd feelings up until then. I think I 'll just visit the doc and let him/her decide .
