I have small white lumps above and below my eyes. they are hard and round. what are they and what is the best way to avoid them?

Milia: These are blocked glands that may go away on their own. Don't try to "pop" them, they won't pop. You may leave a scar. There are medical and surgical treatments for cosmetic reasons. See a dermatologist if they bother you cosmetically.
