What Causes Bump Beside Iris Of Eye?

I've been having more eye redness that the norm.
I'm 29 years old, 5'7" with no major health issues. I've only had problems with anemia. Here's my issue: I do wear contacts. First I noticed extreme redness with my right eye and it felt as if something was in it. I didn't have any mucus or drainage so I didn't feel it was pink eye. When I looked with a flashlight, I noticed a clear bump beside my iris. My right eye has cleared up, but now I'm having the same issue with my left eye. What could this be?

after going through your problem it appears to be dry eye due to contact lens. you have to remove the contact lens at bed time. now you have to apply artificial tear eye drop. and discontinue using contact and youse your specs till you are alright
