Hi and welcome to HCM,
From the description you have given, it is not clear, whether you have this swelling inside the eye or on the eyelid.
If the swelling is on the eyelid, and is painful, then probably you have a lid infection, called as stye. For this you can use an antibiotic eyedrop and eye ointment with hot compress. T Voltaren 50 mg twice daily after meals will also help.
In any case it is better to continue the oral antibiotic, for 3 days as advised.
All the best!!!

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Swelling of the upper eye lid what you are having is due to the infection of some of the glands of eyelid. What the doctor has prescribed is antibiotics, for which the infection should respond positively.
In addition, kindly give hot fomentation for the lesion about 3 times a day and apply antibiotic cream using applicaps at bedtime till the lesion completely heals.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
