Yeah, ask your doctor but it looks like pink eye to me.

It looks like a stye to me. Styes are little bumps around your eye and can itch like crazy and hurt like a sonofa. When you press on them they should be slightly hard but still soft. I'd still get it checked out by a doctor. I have some eyedrops that helped my stye if you wanted to try that out first. They're called Similasan Stye Eye Relief. They took a couple of days but they worked wonders.

It looks like what they call a "chalazeon" to me. (shall-A-Z-an). Basically, it's a backed up oil duct, which causes the inflammation. Left untreated, it slowly gets bigger, slightly painful, and can cause problems with vision since it gets in the way. If I'm right, you have three options: 1) An eye doc who does surgery can poke it with a needle and stick and drain it (in my experience -- I've had three of these -- that was VERY PAINFUL!) 2) Get some prescription oil removers for the eye. and 3) Get yourself some Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo, and while in the shower, put some on your hands and wash your eyelids. It goes away in about a week or so. Good luck!

Not pink eye. Pink eye affects the whites of the eyeball itself. I agree with the Chalazeon theory. If you ignore it, it will go away eventually. Try holding hot wet cloth to it. There are oil ducts in your eyes which is what makes tears somewhat greasy. If they clog, this is what happens.

Looks like a stye, (pinkeye makes the white of the eye reddish) .....oh yea, and a green eye!

Try holding a used/still warm tea Bag on it, it's probably a stye.
