    Looks like some sort of cyst this kind of thing is pretty common, might be best to take a trip to the vets to see if it is ok to leave it or if it needs removing.

    +1 on the checking with a vet, people here can only guess.

    Maybe clean it with cooled boiled water and tonight and see if it might help. Do you have any eye drops in the house?

    My dog had a similar growth on her eyelid. It was slowly getting bigger. The vet took it off as it would eventually scratch her eye. One little stitch on the outside and one disolvable one on the inside. She had to wear a collar for the 10 days as anytime i took it off she went straight to the eye with her paw.
    The vet was not concerned about it, it seems to be common enough.
