What’s with the yellow flesh in the corner of your eye?

Yellow flesh at the corner of the eye can be seen in the abnormal metabolism of the lacrimal caruncle, blepharospasm, and chronic inflammation and stimulation.
1. Abnormal metabolism of the lacrimal caruncle: The lacrimal caruncle is a soft protrusion at the corner of the eye, where local metabolites and lipids tend to accumulate and form yellow fat particles. This condition only affects the aesthetic appearance and does not affect health, and can be removed surgically if necessary.
2. Blepharospasmosis: Blepharospasmosis is a kind of yellow nodule occurring at the corneal rim, which usually does not invade the cornea and has no obvious symptoms. If the blepharospasmosis is large in size, irritation symptoms such as dryness of the eyes and foreign body sensation can occur, which can be treated by way of surgery.
3. Chronic inflammatory stimulation: Inflammatory changes in the corner of the eye caused by chronic conjunctivitis, chronic dacryocystitis, blepharitis, etc. can be manifested as yellow meat in the corner of the eye.
Yellow meat in the corner of the eye, if accompanied by obvious discomfort or other bad feeling, should promptly go to the local regular hospital.
