The answer

It is permissible to remove fatty cysts around the eyes if they affect vision or eye movement, or cause a noticeable disfigurement that is out of the ordinary. This falls under the category of permissible medical treatment or lawful beautification. However, if they do not significantly affect vision or appearance, it is not permissible to remove them.
