I am so sorry to hear your BCC was misdiagnosed by a consultant ophthalmologist who wrongly told you it was caused by cholesterol. I can understand why it made you so angry especially if she didn't examine it. We have information on our website on treatment decisions for eye cancer and you will find in there a small paragraph on basal cell cancer around the eye and the types of treatment that might be offered to you.
I hope that you can start treatment soon and that it is a success. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch with our cancer nurses on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their helpline is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.
I hope that you will hear from other members of our community who have been diagnosed with BCC recently and that they will pop by to share their experience with you.
