Welcome to HealthCareMagic.Com

Thank you for sending your query.

Though the photograph is not clear it looks like a mucous plug over the meibomian gland present on the lid margin.

There is nothing to worry about and it may resolve on its own.

Is it possible for you to send me a better resolution photograph so that I can confirm my diagnosis and help you better.
