Eggs on a tomato leaf?

I set up a small deck garden for a friend and she sent me this pic of the back of a tomato plant leaf. Can anyone identify this and let me know how to help her? The plant had a slow start, but seems healthy otherwise. This is my first year doing this...and hers too... LOL Thank you to anyone who can help

Aphids perhaps. They look similar to what I had on a tomato plant. I smushed them I can't stand bugs so almost all of them in my garden will die when I find them. I think there are enough bugs in the world already. What gets me good are those bean beetles. They see you getting closer and run away.
They must know they are doing bad things. Twisted Evil

The nicest bad bugs are colorado potato beetles. Those things are very compliant towards getting pushed into a cup of soapy water.
