Thank you for submitting your question regarding Uno. I recommend that she sees her veterinarian. She could have an eye infection and the draining causing an irritation to the underlying skin near her eye. If this is not the case, then the skin near here her eyelid could be the problem. There are certain skin diseases that tend to affect the eyelid margins. Her veterinarian will examine her and determine the best course of treatment to resolve the issue. I hope this information helps!
