Hordeolum: It could be hordeolum, an eyelid infection. Hot compresses 4 times a day can resolve it, but it might take 4-6 days for it to be resolved completely. In severe cases, patient might need an antibiotic in ointment or ophthalmic drops.

Painful bump: This is probably a sty or chalazion. It is an infected gland. Warm compresses 2xdaily can be helpful the first several days. If no change this should be seen by an ophthalmologist and treated.

See eye doc: Could be abcess or blocked oil gland or in grown hair. Use warm wet towel over it four times a day for 10 minutes and make appointment to see eye doctor as you may need antibiotics and drainage.

Chalazion?: Sounds like you may have a chalazion, which is something like a stye. Only way to be sure is to get it checked out very soon by an eye doctor, as it may need treatment to get it to resolve.
