Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having ulcer / red pimple over the eye. The most common cause for this is a stye.
The other causes for this are inflammatory lesions like ulcerative blephartis, chalazion....
Most of these are because of infection and requires treatment by the use of antibiotic eye drops and eye ointments.

If possible do send a photo of the affected eye so that I can confirm the diagnosis and advice you accordingly.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
