Lumps & Bumps on Eyelids
The majority of lumps and bumps on the eyelids are benign and include cysts, papillomas and freckles and can be managed with a simple and short surgical procedure. However, if you are worried about any such lump or bump, it is useful to get an opinion from an oculoplastic surgeon (a surgeon wo is trained in eyelids). A small biopsy may be required in some cases to be absolutely certain of the diagnosis. It is prudent not to ignore any rapidly growing lump or bump on the eyelids.

Watery Eye
A watery eye may be caused by a number of reasons and this includes eyelid problems. A careful examination usually reveals the cause and the treatment can be individually tailored to your eyes.
Rodent Ulcers and Eyelid Cancers
The most common eyelid cancer is a Basal Cell Carcinoma also known as a Rodent Ulcer. A clinical examination is often enough to diagnose this but we like to perform a small biopsy to confirm the diagnosis as it is such an important diagnosis for the patient
