My SIL had a droopy eyelid.

She was very concerned and saw several doctors, including a neurologist. She was finally told that the way she was putting in her contact lenses was actually stretching the muscle so that it was becoming less elastic. They taught her another way to put them in that wouldn't put the wear and tear on her muscle and now it has corrected itself. She was relieved it was something so simple, but it took quite a few doctor visits before somebody was able to figure out the problem.

lump on eyelid
A couple weeks ago I noticed a lump on my eyelid (looks just like a ball bearing underneath the lid). It is not hard and does not hurt. My vision is fine and I don't even realize its there unless I rub my eye and feel it. Has anyone come across this or know what it might be?
Eyelid problem
I have been having a problem with my eylid on my right eye. It is now halfway down over my eye. This has been going on for a few years, but getting worse in the past couple of months. I used to have "liquid" coming for the eye once in a while, but now it's every day and it's worse being on the computer. It's worse in the morning and at night and at byt night time, it's barely open at all.
Can someone tell me who I should go to see? I thought i had a good eye doctor, but I"m starting to get a little more worried as it has worsened in the past few months. Tonight, I can barely keep it open. Do you have any ideas what I could us to help until I see another doctor?
