If you posted a photo it did not come through. What you are describing though sounds urgent. This could be a descemetocele: https://classconnection.s3.amazonaws.com/914/flashcards/1588914/jpg/picture251353602890995.jpg It could also be a foreign body (like a foxtail or some other foreign object) lodged in the cornea. It is strongly recommended that you get Charlie to a vet ASAP to have that eye examined. You don't want him to lose vision or possibly the eye! I hope this helps. Best wishes.
