Bump inside eye, is this NORMAL?
My Fiance is worried about her eye. She made an appointment with her doctor but the soonest she can get in is 12/3.
I told her I would post it online and others would know what this is. Perhaps its totally normal.
She also mentioned that in the last 1-2 months she has noticed her vision degrade, mostly in the eye that is in the picture. She had LASIK a few years ago and earlier this year said she was seeing so perfectly, and its totally noticeable now. She doesnt even want to drive at night anymore, shes only 33...

From the photo it appears that she has an enlargement of the lacrimal gland. This could be a cyst, fatty tissue, inflammatory, or due to a tumor (unlikely). She needs to see an ophthalmologist, and possibly an oculoplastics specialist for a biopsy of the tissue.
