Hi Vansessa, I have the same problem as yours, so I was wondering if you had the mole removed from  your eye? Did u find the way? thanks,

the mole its on like the skin around my eye and im afraid that if i go in to get it removed i might go blind or something and also im a model..and the model agencies are telling me that if i want to be a model i'm going to have to get it removed so is there any risks like if they remove the mole will the skin around my eye look different than the other eye..or like do you think i shouldnt risk it.

If it on the eyelid it can usually be removed with good results by a good surgeon.  If it is on the eye - then we usually leave them alone unless it appears at risk for cancer.  Bottom line is that it all depends.  A conservative surgeon may say no.  A risk taker surgeon may say yes.  It depends on the location, size, and appearance.  Sometimes the best course of action is to leave it alone.  If you really, really, really want it removed, you can probably find someone to do it - be make sure they are reputable and looking out for your best interests.  See an EyeMD Ophthalmologist for starters.
