Hello
It appears that your son is suffering from chalazion in his right eye. It is usually a painless condition and treatment requires very simple surgical procedure by an eye surgeon. Therefore, you should visit an eye surgeon to it removed.
Meanwhile, you should take care of the hygiene of the eyes and try to reduce the size of chalazion by regular gentle massage on the surface of the swelling.
