Something on My Eyelid

I have something on my eyelid. It looks like a white dot, and feels like a tiny bump. It will not come off. What could this be?

Dear Munnkeyboy13,
It is difficult to tell over the internet what white dots on the eyelid represent. Eyelid bumps can be all kinds of things, from infectious in origin, to cystic in nature, to atypical. It is important to see an EyeMD to have it checked.
