palpebral
palpebral (PAL-puh-bruhl, pal-PEE-bruhl, pal-PEB-ruhl) - adj., of, relating to, or located on or near the eyelid.
Thanks, WikiMedia!
Medical jargon of the hard-to-pronounce variety -- it'd be a good word to include in a tongue-twister. Taken in the 1750s from Late Latin palpebrālis, of or on the eyelids, adjectival form of Latin palpebra, eyelid.
