Hi,
It's not ECZEMA, uncommon on eyelids. A common problem on eyelids is HORDEOLUM ( Stye). It's a bacterial infection. Amoxyclov 2 times daily for 5 days and Hot moppings will reduce the pain and recurrence.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Puvvula Kishore Kumar, Dermatologist
