Hello
Welcome to Health Care Magic.
I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
I reviewed your history.
I can understand your concern but there is no need to worry.
It seems from the history that you gave undergone a surgery for removal of a cyst near the eye and following surgery you are having a lump. This is most commonly because of hematoma ( collection of blood)or because of inflammation caused by the surgery and will resolve without leaving any residual swelling, hence no need to worry.
Use of hot compression and antiinflammatory drugs will provide better and quick resolution.
Please give me the details regarding post op medications you are using and if possible do send a photo of the affected eye so that I can advice you more accurately.
