@baz10 I recently had MOHS on my left nostril, so not too far from my eye. We used a local anesthetic only. A couple of years ago I had MOHS on my left eyebrow, also with local anesthetic only. Did the eye surgeon explain why "it would be brutal"? Both of the surgeries I mentioned were done by a doctor who specializes in MOHS.

Ginger, I had one of my Moh's on my upper nose, right by my eye & it was not "comfortable",
but having surgery on one's eyelid is another matter! My one nose procedure was in an area that has hardly any flesh, just some skin & bone. Maybe I'm a big baby!!!!
I don't know if some of Moh's procedures are done while asleep, I will ask the surgeon, as I have another appointment in a few weeks.
Good luck to all of us!
