Does An Eye Swelling Need Medical Attention?

I have major swelling in my left eye and I think it is from my CPAP Machine. I have been cleaning the mask, tube, and the water container for the last week every day. Do I need to go in to the doctor or will this go away. Had my CPAP now for a few months. Just started having problems this week.

just your history of swelling left eye does not explain your complete problem. get your eye examined by eye doctor.after diagnosis treatment can be decided. it can be allergy or an infection. treatment will be accordingly given.
