Problem in corer of eye

The little tiny pink "thing"n the corner of my left eye has been swollen for a while and now it itches. It almost looks like tiny white bumps or blisters are growing on it.  No other area of the eye is affected or red. I am wondering if this will spread and what it is.

That is called the "caruncle" and is a vestigeal third eyelid.

Most things there are benign. Try warm compress, artifical tears and Zaditor (OTC) eye drop.

If it gets worse see an Eye MD.
