Seeking the most effective way to remove Xanthelasma on my left eye (Photo)

ohayorei
I've had this little Xanthelasma on my left eye when I was sick and my cholesterol wasn't controlled properly. Now, I'm trying to have it removed. I've heard of cryotherapy and surgery. What do you suggest is the best possible solution for me? Also, how much does it usually cost to have the said procedure done? Thanks.
