Managing Eyelid Lesions – From Diagnosis to Treatment

Eyelid lesions are a common concern that can range from benign growths to potentially serious conditions such as skin cancer. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to preserving the health and aesthetics of the eyelids.

Types of Eyelid Lesions
Eyelid lesions come in various forms, including:
Benign lesions: Chalazions, styes, and cysts
Pigmented lesions: Moles or nevi
Malignant lesions: Basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or melanoma

Diagnosis and Treatment
The treatment of eyelid lesions begins with a thorough examination and, if necessary, a biopsy to determine the nature of the lesion. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include:
 – Surgical excision
 – Cryotherapy
 – Laser treatment
 – Reconstructive surgery for larger lesions
