Crusted Eyelashes After Sleeping
“Sleep in the eyes” or eye discharge is normal. It is caused by clogged glands, dry eye along with any other debris, building up in the corner of your eye and your eyelashes. This is your eye’s way of cleaning itself. Excessive eye discharge can be a sign of inflammation and/or infection.
Lump on Eyelid
A lump on the eyelid can be a stye, chalazion or tumor. A chalazion is a benign, painless bump on the eyelid caused by a clogged pore on the eyelid. If the bump is painful or infected, it is most likely a stye. Minor styes can sometimes be resolved at home in a few cases with treatment. Others may need to be cared for by a professional. Contact your eye doctor if you are experiencing this issue.
Spot on Eyelid, Colored
Spots on the eyelid are typically due to sun damage. Sometimes, these spots can be due to skin cancer. You should always consult an ophthalmologist if you notice new spots on your eyelids or anywhere near your eye.
