A small lesion on the eyelid may seem completely harmless. However, enlargement, changes in shape or colour, bleeding, ulceration, a persistent non-healing lesion, or loss of eyelashes are reasons to consult a specialist.

In the new “Expert Recommends” video, specialists from the Ophthalmic Oncology Department of the Filatov Institute explain which changes in the eyelids to watch for. They also explain why timely diagnosis is particularly important.

Not every lesion is malignant. But every suspicious lesion requires professional assessment.
