Cold compress: Cold compress, and go to your eye doctor to rule out serious injury to your eye that can include trauma induced inflammation, corneal abrasion, cataract, retinal tear/detachment or optic nerve injury.

See MD: You need to get to a doctor to properly evaluate the cause. There may be infection or trauma that you were unaware of as may occur during sleep. This is not an appropriate condition to address online.
