The outer corner of the eye is called the Canthus.

The canthus is either corner of the eye where the upper and lower eyelids meet or more specifically, the inner and outer canthi are, respectively, the medial and lateral ends/angles of the palpebral fissure.

Here's an image showing the eye parts that may help you out more.
