This mostly looks like stye ( infection) .  You will have to consult an ophthalmologist for further treatment. She will mostly require antibiotic eye ointment and most important hot ( warm compressions). Please do consult and opthalmologist at the earliest.

It looks like pre septal cellulitis. She needs oral antibiotic and some warm compression. Tell us the weight of the patient. Pls see if she had any history of fever or recent cold and cough
