Eyes Itch Evenings. Lifted Eyelid, Sticky Skin Found. Advise?

I was reading about the conjunctivitis which I think may be experiencing. My eyes will itch in the evenings only, when I rub them I think it is causing the inside of my eyelid to ball up causing me EXTREME discomfort. When I lifted my eyelid I found a sticky skin like substance that was difficult to remove. Its very painful, but after an hour or two of the itching episode it seems to subside. I don't have health insurance, and was hoping you could tell me if there is something that I can try to relieve this without going to the doctor.
