What Causes Pain In The Eyelid?

I have pain under my right eyelid near the middle of the bridge of my nose. It is on the white area of my eye and it has some redness to it. I have been tearing a little more than usual. It is painful to the touch and still painful when i blink. I have not had any recent flu or illness. Do you know what this could be?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some infection in opening of naso-lacrimal duct ( tear carrying duct ) giving rise to some swelling, redness and pain over the site.
As you told that this problem is under eye lid then another possibility of having formation of stye.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course for3-5 days.
Put antibiotic eye drops 3-4 times a day for 3-4 days.
Ok and take care.
