A descriptive and retrospective study of 266 medical histories corresponding to patients with histological diagnosis of benign eyelid neoplasias was made. They were operated on at the Oculoplastic Surgery Department of "Pando Ferrer" Ophthalmologic Hospital from January, 1989, to December, 1999. 36 % of the patients were in the group aged 31-50 and only 6 % were under 15. 64 % of the cases that underwent surgery were females. 41 % of the neoplasias were localized in the upper eyelid and 40 % in the lower eyelid. 16 histological types of tumors were found. The benign eyelid tumors are more frequent from the third decade of life on, and females are the most affected. These tumors are localized mainly in the upper and lower eyelid. Cysts, followed by nevus and keratosis were the commonest histologic diagnoses.
