Hello,
It seems from the history that it is non infective boil called as chalazion. The treatment of the condition is by surgical incision and curettage. It can also be treated by intralesional injection of long acting steroids.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for treatment accordingly.
Thank you
