faint yellow bumps on eyeline
Hi, I recently discovered 2 faint little yellow bumps on my eyeline (the area where one would apply eyeliner). I don't put makeup on or anything, so I don't think its an allergy. What is this problem? I thought it was just some gunk in my eye so i tried to take it off with my nail, and of course it didn't move, its like on my eyeline. What is it?
Thanks for answering my question. I looked at epithelial cysts online. My bumps are actually very clear, but yellow at the same time. the color is like very watered down green tea (only comparison I can think of sorry :) ) Its see-through like. Do you still think it is a cyst?

Most likely an epithelial cyst. If it becomes larger you may want to have it surgically removed. See an opthalmologist for an evaluation. Generally these cysts are harmless.
