Pinguecula: It may be a sun damage area of conjunctiva that is called Pinguecula. You may had it but you may be came more aware of it now. Please wear sun glasses that have both UV A and B coatings. Pinguecula can get irritated and inflamed then it becomes more red and visible.

Eye "bump": This is difficult to interpret because of some lack of description. It may represent a small benign cyst and would be of no concern. If it increases in size or becomes symptomatic I would return to your eye doctor for his interpretation.
