I have a swollen place under my eye like I've been crying?

Over this last year I began to suffer from dry eyes and I have only just found proper relief for them.

My doctor tried me with many different drops, but after a visit with the specialist it turned out that I could not tolerate the preservative in the drops and he prescribed me Celluvisc 0.5%w/w

At last my eyes feel much better, but, I have developed like a water filled place under one eye, like you get after crying a lot.

My doctor has dismissed it and doesn't seem to care that it is swollen enough to impede my sight slightly. He recommended vaseline, but that seems daft!

I'm not seeing the specialist again and so I don't know if this swelling is from the drops, something else, or even if it is going to be permanent?

Anyone know anything about this kind of thing please?

Update:

It's NOT a stye, it's not on the lid, upper or lower. It's a swelling underneath the skin under my eye socket. on my face!

Please read properly as I have ALREADY seen the Specialist.

    It could just be a stye, they are common and re occurring, no major thing but can be somewhat painful.

    Incist your doctor gives you a referral to see a specialist, as he has clearly not solved the problem.
