Patient's question:
My baby is already two and a half months old. Since November 23, I have noticed a fleshy growth on the outer corner of his right eye. When I went to the hospital, they said it was a growth of blood clots (the website says it's a polyp). Please ask, does this growth of blood clots (polyps) affect the baby's vision, and how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
This must be taken to a large ophthalmology department for a check-up to identify the cause and actively treat it. Can you share the symptoms? It might be a dermoid tumor, which could affect appearance and may require surgery. Prompt ophthalmology examination for a clear diagnosis and symptomatic treatment is crucial; early detection leads to better treatment outcomes. The next treatment method will be determined based on the condition. Since it has been gradually growing, the best advice is to first undergo a detailed examination before starting treatment.
