Chalazion (eyelid cysts)

Ok so I got this strange little cyst under my eyelid earlier this year. I'm used to getting stye's so I though that it was another one--I kinda just ignored it thinking it would go away like my stye's have. Well...it didn'tand, on top of that, I got another one on the other eyelid! I did some research and found that they are called chalazia (chalazion plural). They are not styes because they develop undler the eyelid instead of near the eyelashes and they take months to a year to go away as opposed to a stye which takes a week or two.

I finally got tired of my eyes looking all droopy and made an eye doctor appointment. they confirmed that they are chalazion and suggested that I get surgery to get them removed (Eeeeek...surgery!?) I declined surgery and came home to do more research. I found some youtube videos of the procedure and it doesn't seem too bad...sounds worse than it seems.

I've decided to go ahead and get it done. My appointment is coming up on september 21. NeRvOuS...I'll post an update later to show before and after pictures. In the meantime i'll post a regular picture:
