This could be edema in her eye. I would definitely have your vet take another look at it as soon as your can to ensure it is improving and not getting worse. Your vet may need to change the antibiotics ointment or add in additional meds if it isn't healing. It could also be a scar and the vet may just have you continue the current meds. I hope this helps!
