I have swollen eyes - today is the 4th day and it is really bad. the first 2 days was just a little bit of puffiness but yesterday afternoon it started to swell. this morning, my eye is almost closed and puffiness has increased.

Possibly allergic : There may be a localized allergic reaction to an insect bite, an infection of the eyelid or the lining of the eye called the conjunctivae. If you have been rubbing your eye, this may also cause swelling. Take an antihistamine and see your physician.
