Abstract

An African American patient in their 60s with a history of monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance presents to the oculoplastic service for intermittent, bilateral upper eyelid swelling and pain for 2 years. Examination reveals hyperpigmented, spongy eyelid edema with redundant skin, and no lymphadenopathy is present. What would you do next?
