LID EXAMINATION
The skin of the lids should be
examined for any "lumps or bumps"
or skin lesions. It is best to have
the patients close their eyes and
scan the lids starting with the
upper lid from temporal to nasal
followed by the lower lid.
Low (7 to 10X) to moderate (10X to
16X) magnification is used when
examining the lids with higher
magnification only used to study an
abnormality. If too high a
magnification is used numerous
abnormalities may be missed.
