The traps that quietly cost points
These are the point-loss patterns iHuman never tells you about. We map every one for this case.
⚠
Hordeolum is acute, painful, localized — chalazion is chronic, non-tender, and granulomatous
⚠
Warm compresses 4x/day for 10-15 minutes is first-line treatment
⚠
Do NOT incise and drain unless pointing and fluctuant
⚠
Topical antibiotic (erythromycin ointment) only if concurrent blepharitis
⚠
Preseptal cellulitis: diffuse lid edema + fever = urgent referral (must not miss)
