Lid Trauma, Cysts and Benign Tumors Flashcards
Describe Contusion (ecchymosis)
- “black eye”
- hemorrhage can cause IOP spike that is sight threatening.
Tx: Surgical care
Describe Burns (thermal and chemical)
Thermal: edema can increase IOP, use supportive Tx. If 3rd degree then consult.
Chemical: immediate profuse irrigation
alkali - greater disruption due to capillary closure
Tx: Immediate irrigation until pH normal x2 then give antibiotics and cycloplegia
Describe treatment for adhesion (i.e. crazy glue)
- mineral oil soak followed by pressure patch and forceps removal.

C. Biopsy with cryo.
Describe Sudoriferous cyst
- clear round nodules form from gland of moll
- asymptomatic but can lead to trichiasis and irritation
Tx: excision - lancing can increase reccurance
You have an elderly patient that presents with clear round nodules around their gland of Moll. Patient doesn’t report any symptoms but complains of irritation. What is the diagnosis?
