What Is The Treatment For A Swollen Eye?

I got hot cooking oil in my eye yesterday. I have been using eye drops (just regular dry eyes it's what a pharmacist recommended) my eye is still swollen and it is still very tender.

It is not messing with my vision in any way. I was just wondering if you could advise anything other than what I am doing?
