The mole pictured, need to be examined by a plastic surgeon to determine what it is?. It is very near the tear duct opening in the lower lid. To remove it requires the expertise  of a plastic surgeon or ophthalmic plastic surgeon.

I would highly recommend that you see a facial plastic surgeon or oculoplastic surgeon to have the lesion evaluated and possibly biopsied.
