What does this look like on my 4 year old son’s eye?

He’s not bothered by it. No pain. Mildly itchy.
No fever or sickness.

Do I need to call GP or would pharmacy be a better option?

Could be the start of conjunctivitis?

But pharmacy for sure

Chelation I think. DD used to get it all the time.

Possibly an allergic reaction? If he's not bothered by it and it's not getting worse I'd go to the pharmacy first and see what they suggest. He might need a gp appointment due to his age but they will be able to advise you.

*chalazion!!

Autocorrect fail.

I'm not sure but I'd definitely get the pharmacist to have a look.

I had a chalazion that started out like that. Got drops but needed a prescription. Try pharmacist first.

Thanks all.

I’ll try at the pharmacy first.
