Ophthalmologist 's  Response
You have Meibomitis .... which is an inflammatory condition due to the changes in the oily secretions from the glands in the lids seen in the corners of the eye as they tend to pool in those sites.Lid hygiene ...frequent cleaning, gentle massage and lubricating eye drops should work.....if not better to consult Ophthalmologist
