Have Mole Eye Corner, Below Lashes, On Conjunctiva. Surgical Removal?

Hi John, I've a mole in the corner of my eye. It is below my lashes & it looks from the front that it is on my white eyeball. It is about 0.3cm big if I were to describe the size. It doesn't block my vision as it is at the outermost left side on my left eye. I'm not sure if there is any complications and should I go for a surgery to remove it?

Hello

It is a harmless condition which is just like pigmentation is some other part of body. You need not worry about it and no treatment is required for this. You should observe the size of this and if it increases is size over a period of 3-6 months, you should consult an eye specialist.
