A member asked:

How to treat this yellowish bump in the corner of my eye?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't: The bump is called a pingueculum, something you have in each corner of both eyes. They are the callus of the eye; a protective growth in the middle years against wind, dust and light radiation. Most are very small but a few are cosmetically large and can be reduced. Check with your ophthalmologist if yours bothers you.
