Ice barley is caused by the blockage of the outlet duct of the sebaceous glands (Meibomian and Zeis glands) of the eyelid. Chronic inflammation that appears as a painless lump on the eyelid. If it becomes infected with bacteria, a so-called hordeolum develops.

Surgical opening and evacuation can be considered after the inflammation subsides.
