Hello
It seems from the history that you are having a blister on the eye lid. This can be a style or hordeolum.
This requires treatment by appropriate antibiotic eye drops or eye ointment along with oral antiinflammatory drugs for control of pain and other inflammatory symptoms.
Hot compression of the local area is helpful to provide better symptomatic relief.

Thank you
