Lump removal

I have this lumb in my eye. It started off as a sty but then went into what i think is my tear duck and turned into this weird little lump. It dont hurt or anything so I'm not to worried.

Now I'm not asking you to diagnose what it is but to revmove lumps they usually have to cut it out right??
It cant be got rid of in any other way can it?
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    See your GP.

    No idea what it is, no idea what you can do to get rid of it. Leave it to the professionals :)

    yus. i wasn't implying that you should just get some eye cream and hope for the best.

    more that your shouldn't put off seeing the doctor cause you don't want them to cut your eye, cause it might be something really simple and easy to cure ;)

    Could be a meibomiam cyst (sp?) I've had a few of these and although painless they can get infected and go horrible. I had two cut out and it wasn't a very pleasant experience, they have to clamp your eyelid down and burst the cyst ewww. I did have some eye ointment to try and get rid of it first but it didn't work.

    I was told mine were probably caused by not taking my eye makeup properly!
