Hi
Your history regarding the condition of the child is incomplete. The usual location of the dermolipoma is lateral in association with the medial react us muscle not with the levator muscle. One has to be very sure in such cases of the exact nature of the mass. Presently the child should be examined by an ophthalmic plastic surgeon and further course can be decided thereafter.
Take care
