Brief Answer:
It seems like eczema.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I see the photos you attached and the root of the nose seems red and scaly .
It doesn't seem like melanoma or squamous.
I think this can possibly be eczema or dermatitis.
I think you may need to use corticosteroid cream on it like hydrocortisone cream.
Stop wearing eye glasses because they can irritate it or change them to a more friendly material.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
