Asked By:SilentThunder in Singapore, SG

I got a stye several times in my upper right eyelid 10 yrs ago, it causes a scar in my upper eyelid (Please see pics). Now it looks like i always have a stye and its bothering me. three doctors already perform operation to scrape the back of my eyelid if they can remove any residue cause by the stye but there was no improvement in the appearance of the scar. Can any surgery or laser treatment that can help remove this small bump scar in my upper eyelid?
