Probably not related: You should have a dilated eye exam to make sure that the mole hasn't changed. Generally this should occur annually.

Need eye exam: You definitely need a thorough eye exam as soon as possible. While the crusting might be due to a different condition, either allergy/infection you are overdue for the follow-up regarding the mole. .
