I would get that seen. It could be an infection or ocular rosacea/blepharitis which can be pretty bad.

ooh thanks for the link.
I honestly thought it had been bitten by something when I woke up. Definitely going to keep an eye on it.
The link gives the treatment for it. I have a tendency to ocular rosacea, the same treatment was prescribe to me and it's worked very well. I have been very attentive as rosacea can have very bad outcomes. So I use systane drops and wipes. The best brand, the one recommended to me by the specialist at the Downtown Hospital ( usa ) , ocusoft, isn't available here. But if you can get it, do. It has a tiny bit of abrasiveness which cleans out the tiny glands better.
