Chennai - Doctors find tumour in woman's eye, here is what it turned out to be

Doctors of Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital in Chrompet were left baffled after a strange tumour appeared in a 34-year-old woman's eye. The tumour reportedly appeared in some scan images and couldn't be seen in others.

The woman had gone to the hospital due to a constant headache, following which she was asked to take an MRI scan. The first result indicated a lesion on her left eyeball. However, it was not present in all the scan images. Dr L Subha Raguram reportedly said, "We had initially suspected it to be a ciliary body tumour, but we decided to do a second scan as the mass was unlike anything we had seen."

After the second scan carried similar results, the doctors decided to conduct a detailed examination. It was found only then that the tumour was in fact sediment of the kajal she had applied. After making her wash away her makeup, the tumour disappeared.
