I Think I Have Some Kind Of Eye Infection? I

I think I have some kind of eye infection? I noticed a very slight pain in my left eye this morning when I rubbed my eyes upon waking...it was noticeable through the first part of the day, in the afternoon, I examined my left eye more closely in the mirror, it "looks" normal at first glance, just slightly rimmed in red, I pulled down my bottom eye-lid (near the corner), and saw a small "mass", and the tissue just under the lid was noticeably more red than my right eye...I experienced some minor discomfort in the left eye during work tonight, even periodic blurred vision in that eye...strange enough to make me think that something isn't right. When I got home around midnight, I again examined it close up in the mirror, and noticed some mucus-like discharge, which I rinsed with water and cleaned up with a cotton swab. From outward appearance, I look normal, just a little more redness in my left eye, no redness or swelling visible, but not sure how it will look by tomorrow morning. I don't have any known allergies.
