You do not meet the requirements for Lid Express at this time.
Bleeding, scabbing, eyelash loss or an "ulcerated appearance" may be signs of a cancerous growth. Based on your responses, your growth should be further examined by your optometrist or family doctor. If you do not have an optometrist you can arrange an appointment with one at Clarity Eye Institute. It is important to have possible skin cancers on the eyelids assessed as they can cause irreversible damage to the nearby skin or other organs in your body.
You're almost there!
To complete the assessment of your eyelid growth, we require further information from you. Please complete the intake form below and follow the instructions provided for taking the photos needed to complete your intake submission.
Instructions for taking your photos
- A photo taken straight-on that includes both eyes open
- A photo straight-on that includes both eyes closed
- Take a photo that best demonstrates the bump(s) you are concerned about
Take photos in a bright room with natural light, avoid make-up.
If possible, ask someone to help you take the photo.
Avoid selfies as the quality of the photo tends to be reduced.
Send the photo that is MOST representative of what the bump looks like now.
We understand that some bumps may have looked better or worse in the past, but we want to see what the bump looks like in the present day.
Protect your privacy.
You do not need to send a full photo of your face but try to include half of your nose in the photo. This will make your photo less identifiable.
You have successfully completed your intake form and photo submission for Lid Express.

- If you are not a candidate, we will recommend that you seek a referral from your optometrist or family doctor direct to “Clarity Eye Institute, Oculoplastic Surgery” as you may require further assessment beyond what is offered through Lid Express.
