3. Exposure to air pollutants: This can irritate the eyes and potentially lead to a chalazion.
4. Poor eyelid hygiene: Not keeping the eyelids clean can increase the risk of a chalazion.
5. Chronic blepharitis: This is a condition where the eyelid edges become inflamed.
6. Seborrheic dermatitis: This skin condition can increase the risk of a chalazion.
7. Eyelid trauma: Any injury to the eyelid can potentially lead to a chalazion.
8. Immune deficiency states: People with weakened immune systems may be more susceptible to developing a chalazion.
9. Hyperlipidemia: High levels of lipids in the blood can increase the risk of a chalazion.
10. Tuberculosis and Leishmaniasis: These diseases have been associated with an increased risk of chalazion.
