It looks like Noel could have a skin or eyelid infection secondary to something like allergies, ringworm, or mange (a mite infection). Some autoimmune skin diseases can cause similar signs. I would recommend seeing your vet - they might want to take a sample to examine for mites or infection, then may recommend some oral or topical treatments.
