Excision of lesion of canthus (procedure code C1110)
Curettage/cryotherapy of lesion of eyelid (procedure code C1230)
Biopsy of lesion of eyelid (procedure code C2220)

Eyelid lesions may be simple benign cysts but may be of a more sinister nature and should be assessed by your doctor.

Timely biopsy and or removal of eyelid lesions can prevent progression to more difficult to treat cancerous growths.

Biopsy and/or removal of eyelid lesions is best performed by an oculoplastic surgeon to ensure complete removal and a good cosmetic outcome.
