What Causes Swelling Around The Eye?

My eye is swellled shut. The hard cyst like matter in my eyebrow isn't growing but the swelling is terrible. Dr put me on antibiotics yesterday. I don't have medical ins and now my vision is being affected because my eye won't stay open. I think it might be an ingrown hair. Please help me. I've been doing hot compresses.
