I have a pain in my left eye localized on my bottom eyelid. i especially feel it when it touch or put pressure on it. what could it be?

Stye: A small pimple in that area can cause a lot of pain. Hot cloth compresses can help soften the tissue, and eventually it will release.

Sty: Sty is laymen's term for chalasion or hordeolum. Usual treatment - warm compresses for about 10 minutes at a time few times a day - supplement with antibiotic drops and sometimes oral antibiotics if it is inflamed or infected. About 50% resolve with conservative treatment and 50% need surgical drainage, done in Ophthalmologist's office. see an Ophthalmologist to confirm diagnosis and treat
