How Can A Boil On The Eyelid Post A Cataract Surgery Be Treated?

My mom had cataract surgery earlier this year. She has returned several times to ophthalmologist who performed procedure for followup care. The eyelid has since developed what looks to be a boil. Is this common? What is the medical term for this condition?
