Question 1

So, I've noticed these cholesterol deposits on the corner of my eyelid that started showing up about a year ago. I'm wondering how I can treat them or if I even need to. Could you recommend a clinic or specialist I should visit for this issue?

Accepted Answer

The cholesterol deposits on your eyelid are likely xanthelasmata, a harmless condition, but to confirm and discuss treatment options, consider consulting a dermatologist or an oculoplastic surgeon at a reputable eye clinic or hospital, and in the meantime, maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management, may help slow their growth.
