Is It A Cause Of Concern To Have A Feeling Of Knot Inside Eyelid?

I have what feels like a knot on the inside of my left eyelid, I wear contacts and it is at the top inside corner of my eyelid near my nose, I was just rubbing my eyes and noticed the knot under my eyelid because I can feel it, I rubbed the other eye to see if I had one there and did not. Is this a cause for concern

Hello,
It seems from the history that you are probably having a small swelling involving one of the gland of the eyelids, like chalazion.
There is no cause for concern, but this requires treatment by eye doctor after examination and confirmation of diagnosis.

Hence I advice you to consult your eye doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
