What to do if bump persists after removing chalazion?

Hi doctor,

I had a chalazion on my lower lid and it was removed about a month ago. But, the bump still has not gone away and has the slight redness on it. Also, when I was having it removed; my doctor said that I have blepharitis. But, my eyes do not hurt and the eyelids are not red. When my chalazion will fully go away and flatten? Will I ever be able to wear eye makeup again? Because, it is something without which I do not feel confident. This has really been depressing me a lot.

What is the time limit to do dilated eye exam?

Hi doctor,

My daughter, who is 9 years, went for an eye test. They put some drops for four times in an hour duration. Then, the doctor has told her to come the next day, but within the gap of 24 hours. Is that right? Can you tell me the time limit to do dilation test for eye examination?
