Where are dermoids found around the eyes?
There are two main dermoid types that occur on or around the eyes. An orbital dermoid is typically found in association with the bones of the eye socket. A epibulbar dermoid is found on the surface of the eye, either at the junction of the cornea and sclera (limbal epibullar dermoid) or more posteriorly on the eye where the conjunctiva that covers the eye meets the conjunctiva that covers the lid (posterior epibulbar dermoid or lipodermoid).
