Small swelling in eye white
Hello Doctor, I've got a small swelling in the white of my left eye. It happened all of a sudden this evening. Not sure what caused it. It was slight red for a while but that has gone away but I can see a small white swelling/inflammation. Can you kindly tell me what it could be?
