Pea eye is simply the lower lid losing tension and drooping down. The conjunctiva will still look a normal, healthy colour, and there will be no redness or discharge.
Any discharge/watering, swelling or redness in the conjunctiva requires a vet check (eyes are considered urgent and require ideally same day vet care as they deteriorate quickly) as it can suggest injury or infection.
I hope your piggy is ok
