CONTACT NOW Answer: Nevus of the Caruncle The black spot is most likely a benign growth (nevus) of the caruncle. These are most commonly benign but malignancies have been reported. These can be safely removed by an oculoplastic surgeon.

Answer: This is most likely a caruncular nevus. It is reasonable to have this assessed by an oculoplastic surgeon. If appropriate, they can arrange to exicisionally biopsy the lesion. It is considered a minor procedure with rapid recovery. The American Society for Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery maintains a regional directory on their website that can help you find an appropriately trained oculoplastic surgeon close to home.

Answer: Lesion in your caruncle This lesion appears to be in area in your inner eye called the Caruncle. It is very common to have cysts there, but occasionally cancerous growths may occur there. Generally, this lesion can be removed by an oculoplastic surgeon, and depending on the size, may be able to be done in the office. Definitely make sure a biopsy is sent for analysis to make sure it is nothing to worry about or that may require further treatment. Good luck!

Answer: It seems you have some pigmented lesion over your caruncle. these lesions usually are recommended to be removed, since there is difficulty with assessing if there is any change in the color or shape of them. My recommendation will be yes, you need to have it removed.

Answer: Spot in the corner of my eye Like all pigmented lesions, or "spots," that come up out of nowhere, this one needs to be evaluated. Skin lesions need to be seen by a plastic surgeon or dermatologist, and lesions such as yours on or near the eye, must be evaluated by an oculoplastic surgeon. Find one and make an appointment right away.
