Nodular eye swelling
I noticed since last two days the right part of eye was red and consulted the doctor saying its a nodular swelling kind of thing. I have a swelling at one node like structure on my sclera. What could it be? Doctor prescribed me an inflammation drop and the swelling doesnt seem to subside(minor swelling although). Theres no pain or no water is running from my eyes.

It may be a cyst or nodule. Sometimes may require steroid eye drops. Revisit your doctor
