A member asked:

Sore on inner corner of rt. eye, between nose and eye, could it be cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes!: Most likely not. Depends on how long it has been there and what it looks like. You can try washing, drying it and applying vasoline twice a day. If it is not improving or resolved in 7 days, you need to see eye md. It may just be chapped skin or skin ulcer from chronic tears.
