Great idea for a common problem with mostly homeopathic workable
remedies; I've increased my armamentarium to include, in ascending order
of agressiveness:

warm compresses
lid and lash scrubs
lid massages
flaxseed oil (oral)
codliver oil (oral)

and some allopathic treatments including:
steroids (topical)
Restasis
antibiotics (topical and oral)
punctal plugs (when dry eyes are contributing)

and as a last resort for those who can't wait for the above to work:
surgery (chalazions only)
