General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It’s just a grey hair and grey hair may be of different structure and length. Nothing much to worry and no definite treatment is required. If the particular eyelash causes any discomfort, you can go for epilation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
