A member asked:
If you have a dermoid due to goldenhar syndrom, can you use some contact lenses for cosmetical purpose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Depends upon where the dermoid is located. If it is overlapping the cornea, there is no practical lens that will fit. If it is on the brow or lid, a contact can be worn but will not disquise the dermoid. Discuss this with your ophthalmologist and see what is the best solution.
