A member asked:
I feel two lumps on and almost behind my right eye, next to the bone, the size of the head of a pin. they are a bit squishy and moveable. what is this?

Tear gland: It sounds like the location of your lacrimal glands(tear glands). These are soft, yellowish glands in the upper, outer areas of both eyes underneath your lids. They can be various sizes and shapes, but typically are mobile, "squishy", and not tender. If painful or tender this could be infected tear glands or possibly chalazia(styes).
