Hello
It seems from the history that you are probably having a lipoma or dermolipoma in right eye involving the upper eyelid. It is a common disease which affects the eye and treatment is by surgical excision.
Few cases have deeper extensions and these have to be evaluated by CT scan to find out and remove them also to prevent incomplete removal and recurrences.
Hence I advice you to undergo surgical excision as advised by your doctor.
Thank you
