A member asked:
I have a red vein on the white part of my eye. my specialist has recommended excision with cautery. please advise any thoughts on this procedure?

necessary?: I am guessing you have a prominent vein which disturbs you in its appearance. These are benign and can be ignored and that is an option for you. Otherwise removal with cautery or laser are possibilities with a high success rate and minimal discomfort.
