Depends: How long you have it? Does it hurt? You should see an ophthalmologist to rule out infection or mass.

Cool compresses: Cool compress with cool water on a wash cloth two to three times per day. Keep the head of your bed elevated at night or when you are lying down. As long as there are no contraindications to you taking an NSAID like ibuprofen, sometimes these medications can decrease inflammation and swelling.
