What Causes Swelling And Sore On My Left Eye?

sollen closed eye I am 38 years old. I am female. I am 5 2inches tall. I wiegh about 129 lbs. I woke up Friday Jan 13th with a small bump on my left eye. It was a little sore but not unbearable. However by Sunday Jan 15 it had started to get red and sore. I did nothing for it really it was not that bad. Then when I woke up Jan 16 th, Monday morning it was red and swollen shut almost. I applied a hot rice pack all day and took some benadryl by 9 pm Monday night it had started to look better. I woke up Tuesday morning it is almost swollen shut and there is a huge painful knot under my eyelid just below my brow that I painful to touch. Is there anything I can do or can you tell me what it is without spending hundreds at the hospital.
