Question
The pink fleshy piece at the corner of my one eye (nearest the nose) has been enlarged and pops out of my eye socket once in a while, actually more and more these day's. What is it called and what would cause it? I mentioned it to my eye Dr. 1 1/2 ago last time I was there and she didn't seem concerned. Should I be?
Answer
Dear Roberta,
Usually you may feel the poke or pricking of the eye and feel the inner canthus a little more enlarged than normal...this may be an allergy.
Any over the counter antiallergy eye drops should help you.
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
