My eyelids are swollen
My eyeslids especially the line above the lashes hurts since the last Wednesday. And because i was annoyed. I started pressing on my eyelids which the next day caused very small swelling. I went to visit a doctor and she applied so much pressure and told me that it is sebaceous cyst. She told me i should apply that much pressure on the eyes using cotton with warm water. But today as i woke up it became even more swollen and hurts really bad.

If you have pain and swelling, you could have an infection. It would be best for you to seek medical care.

It is difficult to determine what this is without photos/exam but I would try cold compresses or ice. 20 minutes on, then 20 minutes off. If this doesn't get better in a few days, see an eye doctor.
Sounds like a misdiagnosis. You should see your ophthalmologist.
It sounds like good advice.
