Xanthelasma palpebrarum is coinníoll é ina gcruthaíonn taiscí boga, ar mhórán colaistéaróil bumps buí nó paistí ar choirnéil istigh na n-eyelids. Tá sé neamhurchóideach agus ní chruthaíonn sé rioscaí móra sláinte. Tá leibhéil neamhghnácha lipid ag thart ar leath de na daoine fásta a bhfuil xanthelasma acu. I measc daoine óga, go háirithe páistí, d’fhéadfadh neamhord lipid oidhreachta a bheith le tuiscint dá bhfeicfí xanthelasma. Is gnách go mbíonn cóireáil le haghaidh xanthelasma ar chúiseanna cosmaideacha, mar ní bhíonn gá léi de ghnáth ar chúiseanna leighis.
Xanthelasma palpebrarum is primarily characterized by soft, lipid-rich deposits, especially cholesterol, manifesting as semisolid, yellowish papules or plaques. These deposits are typically found on the inner aspect of the eyes and are most commonly located along the corners of the upper and lower eyelids. Xanthelasma palpebrarum is a benign lesion and does not pose significant health risks. Approximately 50% of adult patients with xanthelasma have abnormal lipid levels. In younger individuals, particularly children, the presence of xanthelasma should prompt consideration of an underlying inherited dyslipidemia. Although xanthelasma treatment is typically not medically necessary, some patients may seek therapy for cosmetic reasons.
