Student tip: This case is an example of applying a diagnosis taught within dog/cat opthalmology |
At a routine health check you notice several raised lesions on the conjunctiva of the upper eyelid (see image).
Question | Answer | Article | |
What are these lesions? | The lesions are chalezia or lipid granulomas. They arise from cystic changes to the meibomian gland, thought to arise from irritation of the epithelial lining.

What treatment would you advise to the owner? | If the rabbit is asymptomatic and the chalezia are not causing deviation of the eyelid or trauma to the corneal surface, no treatment is required. If they are problematic, removal by curettage should be performed. This is often achievable without sedation using local anaesthetic eye drops.
