Tags for this video have been changed from 'pimple, zit, sebaceous, pop, puss, sebum, pus, eyelid, scalpel, ooze' to 'eyelid, surgery, chalazion, excision, cyst, meibomian gland lipogranuloma, medicine' - edited by mauz15

as gross as it may look to most people, this is a surgical procedure so I'm adding this to *science

That is not a zit. It is a cyst, and it looks to me that it is probably a chalazion

I'm no ophthalmologist, but this is definitely not a pimple/zit/whatever. I will change tags and hopefully be correct about the condition.

PLEASE change the title. Thanks.

at the fifteen mark it made me interested. right near the very end when the mother load came out, THAT alone made it worth watching till the end. HOLY CRAP !

oh so sexy.. *puke*

Title changed, and tags altered once more so that people might actually find the video.

^mauz15, I should have left the 'sebaceous cyst' tag I originally had on this. I hate it when I get blockages in the openings of the meibomian glands... especially if I'm wearing contacts. I had no idea they went that far into the eyelid. Thanks for pointing that out.
So, how deep in the skin does a build-up of sebum (or whatever) have to be for the problem to be a cyst, and not a pimple? (not talking specifically about meibomian glands here).

a cyst is different from a pimple in the sense that the cyst is more like a sac, whereas a pimple is like a blockage, a comedo (whitehead/blackhead), papules (red pimples) and pustules (like whiteheads but deeper) resulting from blockage of a hair follicle, oil glands, and other causes I don't know about. How deep? I don't know, probably a lesion is considered a cyst if it makes it to the second skin layer, which is the dermis.

edit: apparently if it is 5mm across, it is a cyst, but I got that from some regular website so it could be false.

OMG... one of my siblings had this when he was young (cyst below the eye) that got to the size of a big marble before he had it surgically removed. This was gross, but also fascinating to watch.
