Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have swollen eye . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like allergies , conjunctivitis , styes and chalazion . I would suggest you to wash your eyes with normal water and apply cold compresses on them , avoid any cosmetic product on face and avoid food like nuts and sea food . Also take antihistamine like benadryl twice a day . If condition persist for 1-2 days then consult opthalmologist for proper chechup . Doctor may prescribe eye drops containing anti allergic , anti bacterial or anti viral . Doctor may also examine your eyes for some forign body and remove it .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
