Can moles form in the eye?
Is it possible for moles to form in the eye? I started feeling irritation in my left eye a couple weeks ago. When I pull down my lower eyelid, there's a round small bump inside that looks like a mole. Should I see a doctor?

Yes, you should see an ophthalmologist ASAP!
Yes, please see your doctor
Yes. See an Ophthalmologist
You should see an ophthalmologist. It is not a mole but an infected gland in the lid that can form pus
Most likely you have a chalazion and its visible inside of your eyelid. You can have granuloma formation inside your eyelid due to foreign body, trauma or chalazion. These are all benign and can be easily removed by an oculoplastic surgeon.
Yes, you should see an eye doctor. What you are describing could be a sty. If it's pigmented, it could be a mole that can sometimes become malignant.
