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.
