What Causes Small Bump On Eyelid Post Spider Bite?
I believe I was bitten by a spider on my eyelid...8 weeks ago. Swelling went down after 3 days. Now, I am left with what feels like a hard round cyst. What would be the treatment? No open sore...just what looks like a small ball bearing lump in my eyelid.
