I have just been diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma and will be having surgery to remove it. As it’s in the corner of my eye I will be having a general anaesthetic. I’m hoping that once the surgery is done, I will be cancer free but I also know this is a complicated area to have BCC. Has anyone had surgery for BCC in the eye area and was it successful? I will have to have a skin graft from the eyelid of the same eye. Has anyone had something similar and how did it go. Obviously my main concern is to get rid of the carcinoma but I’m also a bit worried about ending up lop sided as my other eye will be left alone.
