A friend is having a Chalazion, which is a clogged oil gland in the eyelid. After searching cures/treatments, turmeric is one of the recommended natural treatments and preventatives for cysts in general. I then checked a cyst near my own eye I've had for years, which had become like the size and hardness of a BB.
Several months ago, I began taking a teaspoon of turmeric (with vit C and other vits/supplements, in water) a couple times per day as a general anti-inflammatory. This is anecdotal, but as I felt around with my finger the cyst has practically disappeared.

Not paid by Big Turmeric. But it's true I started out with taking one ginger/turmeric candy. Now I'm on the hard stuff, and buying it in bulk.
