Cutaneous apocrine-derived eyelid lesions: a series.

Eyelid lesions with apocrine differentiation are uncommon. A retrospective review of 1,920 biopsied sweat gland lesions at a tertiary hospital's ocular pathology laboratory from 2006 to 2024 revealed seven unique cutaneous eyelid tumors with sweat gland apocrine differentiation. The distinct clinical presentation and histopathologic features of the selected eyelid tumors are described.

Global Surveillance of Public Interest in Cosmetic Tourism for Aesthetic Eyelid Surgery Abroad: Cross-Sectional Infodemiology Investigation of Internet Search Trends and Social Media Content.

Background: Global medical tourism for aesthetic surgery has become a popular phenomenon through ease of access in the digital era, though such services are not without potential risks.
