I get these occasionally and they are quite a pain to deal with. You just use lid scrubs (over the counter) and this is the main thing - use very warm compresses like a warm clean wash cloth on your eyelids(s) and do this as many times a day as you can. If you do this it will go away after about a week. Then to make sure you don't get it again I use a warm wet compress every single day for about 1 minute. I have not had one in quite a while now. You don't need a retinal doctor for this. Any eye doctor should know about this. I use Dr. Gooch and Dr. Ireland at St. Lukes. I did use Jodie Armstrong in the past with Ocala and she is good too.
I hope this helps you.
