What Does Round, Black Mole Near To Upper Tear Duct Indicate?

What type of doctor should I see regarding what appears to be a tiny round black "mole" next to my right eye's upper tear duct? It is NOT eye makeup as I haven't worn any in over 6 months. Plus it seems to have show up suddenly. It does not hurt nor is it effecting my vision.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having a black mole near the right eye. This can be a sebaceous cyst or other cystic lesions affecting glands of the skin of the eye lids.
This requires examination by a ophthalmologist or a surgeon for examination to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
