It's an acute allergic reaction, most likely due to an insect bite. Take Tab. Levocetrizine 5 mg stat (immediately), and do cold compression with ice. Also needs to be treated with some topical eye drops, which need to be prescribed by an Ophthalmologist.
Next Steps
Start cold compression and visit your nearest eye specialist.
