Raised bumps on a dog's eyelid, with redness on the inside of the lid

What they asked

My dog has a little bit of a slightly raised bump on the outside of her eye. On her eyelid she has a tinier bump, and on the inside of her eyelid she has some redness that also looks like a bump but I can’t tell. They are all in the same area. Picture attached thank you.

Recommend having a veterinarian look at the growth as soon as you can. Eyes can turn into a lot of treatment before you know it. Quick burning, freezing, or surgery can resolve eyelid bumps. If it grows more it can cause her to scratch at the eye or the growth itself cause damage to the cornea.
