Can you help me with the appearance of these bumps/syringomas? (Photos)

I have had the hardest time getting a diagnosis. These bumps are under my eyes and on upper cheeks. I've heard from plastic surgeons and dermatologists they are sebaceous hyperplasia or maybe syringomas. A month after having one cauterized, a shave biopsy was done which came back normal but with possible verruca changes (warts). I am wondering if they are syringoma. Can anyone in NYC/NJ help me with their appearance? What are they? A Dr. says he can barely see them/won't treat.
