White bumps on the eyelids aren't a commonly documented symptom of PBC itself, but they could be related to some things that do connect to PBC.

People with PBC can develop yellow bumps called xanthomas, which are fatty deposits that can appear around the eyes and eyelids. These are linked to the way PBC affects how the body processes fats.

Dry eyes are also very common with PBC, affecting between 47% and 73% of people. This can sometimes lead to irritation or changes around the eye area.

It's always worth mentioning any new skin or eye changes to your doctor or hepatologist, especially since some symptoms can be connected to how well PBC is being managed. They can help figure out exactly what's causing the bumps and whether any treatment is needed.
