Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHER and thanks for your question.  Not sure if this is your case. Most bumps on the eyelid are styes. A stye is an inflamed oil gland on the edge of your eyelid, where the lash meets the lid. It appears as a red, swollen bump that looks like a pimple. It is tender, especially to the touch. other eye bump conditions can be.

Hordeolum:A stye or pimple; infected lid gland - tender, red, painful to touch

Chalazion:An old stye, hard bump - non-painful to touch after the stye resolves
Verruca:A viral wart - small non-painful bumpy wart-like appearance
Papilloma:A smooth, benign, round, hard bump
Sebaceous Cyst
A clogged sweat gland - smooth, round, yellowish cyst

 

It's best to see your doctor and have examine the bump on you eyelid.
