Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pain and tenderness of left eye with corner of the eyelid being sore.
These symptoms indicate inflammatory diseases of the eye lid margin involving the glands of eye lids.
The treatment is by using antibiotic eye ointment and oral antiinflammatory drugs.
Applying hot compression to the sore area provides rapid symptomatic relief.
Thank you
