A member asked:

My right eye lid sticks to my eye ball for a second when i blink. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly dry: Dry eyes could cause it. Also excess conjunctiva (skin covering the white of the eye). A good opthalmic exam can help determine a cause.

I have what looks like a small pimple (whitehead) on the inside corner of my eye. It's not on the lid, or the eye ball, but in the pink fleshy part. Will this go away on its own? It's irritating, and stings. I have had it for 2-3 days.
