It seems like viral conjunctivitis. Clean the eye with sterile cotton after washing your hands with soap amd water, 2 times a day. Use eye drops refresh 1 drop in each eye every 6hours. And eye drop moxiflox 0.5% 1 drop in each eye every 6 hours for 5 days.

consult an ophthalmologist if redness worsens and/or swelling increases.
