The tear glands are situated behind and above the upper eye lid. surely from your descriptions the site of the "boil" is near the caruncle or inside the eyelids. its the inflammation called as sty or an infection. Washing the eye frequently and applying eye drops Will cure your problem. if there is severe irritation or reddening or throbbing pain, you are adviced to consult an ophthalmologist.
