Eyelid Bump treatment in Magdalena Contreras

An eyelid bump is the appearance of a lump, swelling or nodule on the edge or surface of the eyelid, a frequent reason for consultation that is usually benign.

Common causes: it can be due to blocked eyelid glands, inflammations such as a stye or a chalazion, small cysts or, less frequently, other lesions that are worth evaluating.

When to see a doctor? If the lump grows, does not go away, bleeds, affects vision or is accompanied by significant pain, it is wise to have it checked.

Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist is the right professional to examine an eyelid bump and guide its evaluation. It is best to schedule a check-up when the lump persists or changes in appearance.
