What Could Be The Small Bump On Eye Lid?

my girlfriend has developed a small bump on her eyelid/brow area. Doesn t bother her. And she has had it for at least 6 months. Kinda resembles a zit but there has never been a white head or redness. Just remains the same little bump. Any ideas? Thanks for the time

Hello
It seems from the history that she is having most probably inflammatory swelling involving the gland of the eyelids like chalazion.
The treatment is by hot compression and use of antibiotic eye drops.
Non responding cases may require small incision and curettage.
Thank you
