Swollen eyes: Start with preservative free tears one drop every hour. You can also use wash cloth with cool water, and hold it to your closed eyes. You can also try and over the counter allergy drop. Sounds like you have a dry eye or allergic reaction from something. If it gets worse, does not get better, or the vision is affected see and ophthalmologist immediately.
