It is a sign of lipid derangement (fat metabolism) in your body. Kindly adopt healthy diet and regular exercise and get your lipid profile tested.

Hi..
Keep it simple
It may be MILIA which is self resolvable or there might be some lipid derangement going on in your body
Next Steps
what to do:
just get your lipid profile done to know levels of triglycerides, LDL, VLDL, HDL, CHOLESTEROL
Most probably this condition is self resolvable
1. avoid touching or picking the area
2. maintain hygiene with water and cleanser
3. consult an ophthalmologist if u feel pain, discolouration or any kind of localised swelling in lid.
And lastly take care there is not much to worry especially if your blood reports are good

Most Likely Diagnosis - Milia
The spot shown in the image is small, flat, white, and without swelling or redness. This is typical of milia, which are:
tiny trapped keratin cysts under the skin
completely harmless
not related to infection
not painful
common on eyelids
Milia often appear suddenly and may stay for weeks to months but do not cause any harm.
Why it happens
Natural blockage of a tiny skin pore
Minor friction or rubbing of the eyelids
Dry skin
Sometimes no clear reason at all
It is not related to any serious eye disease.
Next Steps
No urgent treatment needed.
Do not try to squeeze or scratch the area.
You may apply a gentle moisturizer to avoid dryness.
If it persists beyond 2–3 months or increases in size, an ophthalmologist or dermatologist can easily remove it with a simple procedure.
Health Tips
Kindly visit any clinician personally, if-
the spot becomes red, swollen, painful
starts growing rapidly
affects vision
None of these are visible in your image.

अगर यह दाना जैसा उभरा हुआ नहीं है, दर्द या खुजली नहीं है और सिर्फ आस‑पास की स्किन से हल्का ज़्यादा सफेद दिखता है, तो यह अक्सर हल्के पिगमेंट की कमी (जैसे बहुत शुरुआती विटिलिगो, पिटिरायसिस अल्बा या पोस्ट‑इन्फ्लेमेटरी हाइपोपिगमेंटेशन) जैसा हो सकता है
अगर बाद में यह उभर कर दाने जैसा हो जाए तो मिलिया जैसे छोटे सफेद सिस्ट या स्टाई/चलेज़ियन जैसे पलक के दाने की संभावना रहती है, जिनमें हल्की उभरी हुई गाँठ महसूस होती है
अभी घर पर क्या केयर करें :- 1)आँख को रगड़ना, बार‑बार छूना, मेक‑अप या कोई भी नया कॉस्मेटिक सीधे उस जगह पर लगाना बंद रखें ताकि स्किन और इरिटेट न हो 2) हल्का फ्रेगरेंस‑फ्री मॉइश्चराइज़र (जैसे हायालुरोनिक एसिड या सेरामाइड वाला) पलक के आसपास बहुत पतली परत में लगा सकती हैं
बिना जाँच के अपनी तरफ से स्टेरॉयड क्रीम, ब्लीचिंग क्रीम, या तेज़ ऐसिड‑पील (AHA/BHA) पलक पर बिल्कुल न लगाएँ
अगले 1–2 हफ्ते दाग को बस ऑब्ज़र्व करें; फोटो लेकर रखें ताकि आकार‑रंग में बदलाव डॉक्टर को दिखा सकें

This white spot on your eyelid is most likely milia, a harmless and common condition. It is not serious, not an infection, and not usually related to cholesterol.
Next Steps
Do not squeeze it; keep the area clean. It often clears on its own. See a doctor only if it grows, becomes painful, or red.
