Hello. If the red mass is on the outside of her eye-ball (like something stuck on the outside of a marble) then she likely would not have complications with her vision. What you are describing could be many things, including the third eye-lid, or conjunctivitis (swelling of the thin skin that covers the eye), or a mass of some sort. I would have it checked by a vet. Do not try to pull it off at home as you could damage important structures. Good luck with Momo.
