Mera diagnaos:
Orange or yellow eyelids are not a condition to be taken lightly. There are many different potential causes of your eyelid discoloration, and some of them are serious medical conditions, so it’s important to talk to your doctor about your yellow eyelids so you can get tested for different causes asap. Not only will you probably find a way to be healthier, but you’ll probably also find an effective way to get rid of your eyelid discoloration. I’m no doctor, but I have heard of a few different medical causes for orange or yellow eyelids:
Jaundice
This is a condition that causes the skin to look yellow. It’s associated with the way the liver is functioning and could be the result of a more serious condition. If you have jaundice, it could be causing your yellow eyelids.
Overdoing the Beta Carotene
If people are getting too much beta-carotene, it can actually turn their skin yellow and orange, and could be the explanation of your eyelid discoloration. Carrots, pumpkin, cantaloupe and squash are just a few of the foods that contain high levels of beta-carotene. (Notice that they’re all orange!) If you are overdoing it with these foods, or with vitamins that contain beta-carotene, you should definitely cut back. Your yellow eyelids will likely clear up.
Dehydration
Eyelid discoloration could be the result of dehydration. Be sure you’re drinking plenty of water and not overdoing it with the alcohol consumption.
Allergy to Gluten
I hear that being allergic to gluten, the protein that’s found in wheat, barley and rye, is pretty common. And a lot of people don’t even know they have the gluten allergy — or sensitivity — if they have one. Not only can it cause stomach and other gastrointestinal problems, but it can also change the appearance of the skin. Ask your doctor if sensitivity to gluten could be causing your eyelid discoloration. You may just have to change your diet in order to get rid of your yellow eyelids.
Fatigue
Make sure you’re getting enough sleep. I know that fatigue can cause under-eye circles and other eyelid discolorations. I’m not sure whether it can cause orange or yellow eyelids, but you probably know better than me if you’re really not getting sleep — and if you’re not, that’s a likely explanation. If you have insomnia, again, this is something you should see a doctor about. The doctor may be able to prescribe a sleep aid that will make you overall healthier, and help improve your eyelid discoloration.
Xanthelasma
I really don’t claim to be an expert on this one — I had to look it up. Xanthelasma is when you have cholesterol trapped underneath the skin in small pockets. These deposits are yellowish and can cause orange or yellow eyelids. This could be a sign that you have high cholesterol levels in your bloodstream, but it might not. Apparently, there are medical solutions that can remove your eyelid discoloration if it’s caused by xanthelasma. Discuss all your options in depth with your doctor.
There are even more possible explanations for eyelid discoloration, so I can’t emphasize enough that you get thoroughly checked out by a good doctor. I hope you find the cause of your yellow eyelids and that it’s treatable. I also hope that it’s not serious and that you stay healthy!
Och så den här diagnosen:
Orange palpebral spots
Orange palpebral spots (OPS) is a fairly recently recognized entity, reported by Assouly et al. (1). This condition is probably under-recognized, as the authors reported the condition in 27 French patients, including 15 diagnosed within a 2-month period (1). We have also encountered other Caucasian patients within a period of several months: a 72-year-old woman and a 57-year-old man, with similar orange discoloration of the inner part of the upper eyelids. OPS mainly affects middle-aged Caucasian women, who present with a symmetrical asymptomatic yellow-orange oval hue of varying intensity on the inner side of the eyelids. Discoloration is more visible on fair skin. The clinical aspect of OPS is different from that of xanthelasma or xanthoma. The pathology of OPS remains unclear; carotenoids, vitamin E and retinol levels are normal. The authors speculated about a possible role of high-level adipocytes, coloured by carotenoids, or lipofuschin deposits associated with the thin skin of the eyelids, supported by microscopic examination of upper eyelid biopsies (1). Based on the clinical and histopathological data provided by Assouly et al. (1), we considered OPS to be the clinical diagnosis in our cases, and that palpebral biopsies would be too “invasive”, especially as none of the patients consulted specifically for this condition.
OPS is undoubtedly an under-recognized entity. It is important to diagnose OPS in order that it is not mistaken for another palpebral condition and unnecessary explorations performed; and in order to reassure patients who are aware of the discolouration.
