What Causes Eye Itching And Swelling On Eyelid?

On Saturday my eye started itching and started to swell on the upper eye lid. I noticed 2 marks on the eye lid that looked like two wood slivers had got into my eye lid the color or black, swelling continued my eye lid became very painful. Now I have these sharp pains and a headache of sort just in the area of that eye. my eye ball hurts to move from side to side. No fever or any other reactions anywhere else.
