Eye problem

I'm not sure what is going on with my eyes, but I have a couple of problems no one has been able to find the cause for.  One is that I have these white spots/bumps in the corner where my eyelids meat the nose.  I also have them on both sides of the bridge of my nose.  I also seem to having a lot of problems with what, I call gunk, in the corners of both eyes.  It's crusty & sometimes white with a little yellow coloring.  This problem started about 6-7 months ago & is only getting worse.  This bothers me the most, because when I wake up, I sometimes, I have this crusty gunk all over the of eyes & yes, I've had one occasion where I had a hard time opening my eyes because of this problem.    What could be causing this problem?

you do need to go in to see an Eye MD ophthalmologist for a definitive diagnosis and treatment.

Ok, I uploaded a picture of my eyes.  Don't know how you would be able to view the picture, though.

I did some research & no it's not blepharitis.   It looks like someone tattooed white marks on my eyes.  If I could figure out a way to upload a picture of what it looks like that would be great.

The most likely cause would be "blepharitis" an oil gland disease of the edge of the eyelids. You can use the search feature and achieves and read about treatment.  Also if you scan posting for the last day or two there is an extended discussion about white bumps on the eyelid.
