Lacrimal Gland Tumor
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
A lacrimal gland tumor is a growth that originates in the structure responsible for producing tears, located in the upper and outer part of the eye socket. It can be benign or malignant, and only specialized study can distinguish it.
Common symptoms: Swelling in the outer part of the upper eyelid, displacement of the eye, a sensation of pressure or, at times, double vision.
When should you seek care? When there is a persistent bulge near the outer corner of the eye or changes in the position of the eyeball.
Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist is the one who examines the lacrimal gland tumor and guides the tests needed to determine its nature. Promptly showing any orbital bulge during a consultation is the best way to clear up any doubts.
