Hello mam,
It looks like Episcleritis, meaning inflammation in a layer called episclera. Mostly it is allergic. Exposure to dust, change of place or climate can commonly trigger this besides other causes.
Use Olopat eye drops two times a day in your affected eye for 1 week.
If it’s not subsiding , consult a doctor nearby
