Conjunctival nevus

Posted , 2 users are following.

I have a nevus on the conjunctiva, I went to one doctor and he said there will be a scar and it could be worse, the second doctor also stressed me, the third doctor told me they just stressed me, the operation will be done by an incision and then stitches, he said that at first there will be a scar and after a few months the scar will be white And they won't see it, I'm really stressed. My nevus is red sometimes strong and sometimes weak, I don't know what a scar looks like in all of this, a line that is like a natural line like a mole in the eye? What color is it? Did the doctor tell me the truth? I've seen a lot of videos and pictures that remove it without a scar, I'm afraid that the scar that will be will be more prominent than what I have, my question is what does a scar look like on the eye area and is prominent, and what color is the scar after healing for a few months? And is there really a scar or can the conjunctival nevus be removed without the scar?

    Hi Masko,

    Just to confirm, you are talking to eye surgeons, is that correct? I think it would be reasonable to ask each surgeon to show you a photo of one of their patients who had a similar nevus removed. Of course results can vary but at least you would have some idea.

    Best wishes, Judy

      On the same day I was at his place, he said that he had done such an operation and that he would show me a picture, he searched on the computer and couldn't find it, and in the end I was left without a picture and without anything to know what the eye will look like in the end, I hope for the best, thank you very much.
