What is it about being born with a black inner corner of the eye?

The inner corner of the patient’s eye is black from birth, which may be caused by pigmented nevus, hemangioma and other reasons.
Nevus pigmentosus is the most common cause of blackness in the inner corner of the eye. Due to abnormal congenital development, there is a large amount of pigment accumulation in the local cells, and the corner of the patient’s eye thus appears to be black. Usually, the size of the nevus does not change significantly. If the size of the nevus increases significantly within a short period of time, or even has a raised surface or ulceration, the possibility of malignant transformation should be suspected.
Hemangioma is also a common cause of darkening of the inner corner of the eye, mostly caused by abnormal blood vessel malformation in the subcutaneous tissue of the corner of the eye, and the patient can eliminate the tumor and improve the appearance through laser treatment and surgical treatment.
It is recommended that patients who are born with darkening of the inner corner of the eye with other discomforts should consult the hospital in time to assess their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
