The swelling could be your physique's reaction from once you traumatized the tissue by potential of popping the cyst or it could be that there is an infection. in case you positioned ice on it and it is going down in an afternoon or so which you're able to not have a undertaking. If it gets pink, heat or starts oozing liquid you probable have an infection and in case you wait to long you're able to lose your eye. as a effect the checklist will could cope with it with a bit of luck until now that entire blindness component kicks in.

My mom has a cyst on her eyelid too and when she asked the eye dr about it he told her it was a lipoma. Double check with an eye dr or your primary care dr to see what kind of a cyst it is.
A lipoma is just a cyst made up of fat cells.

If it grows then it will have to be removed. Right now you can put only cool compresses because it is not a good idea to put anything near your eye that can irritate it. Call your MD and see what he/she thinks.
