Eyelid problems are common and rarely serious, but see your doctor if you’re worried or your eye is particularly uncomfortable.
Some of the common eyelid problems are:
- Swollen eyelid, eyelid cyst or stye
- Itchy, flaky or sticky eyelids
- Lumps on or around the eyelids
- Hooded or droopy upper eyelids
- Lower eyelid that rolls outwards (ectropion)
- Eyelids that roll inwards (entropion)
- Yellow plaques on the eyelids
- Excessive blinking or uncontrollable closure of the eyelids
