Hi and thanks for the query,
Small retention cysts, mild mucosal swelling is quite a common finding in CT scans.
Do not worry about it. If you are not experiencing any symptoms then there is no need for any treatment.
Mucosal thickening and retention cysts do not cause dryness of eyes and numbness.
Regards, Dr Kishori.
