Brief Answer:
It could be virus or side effect of medicine

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This could be side effect of the medicine also. Augmentin is an antibiotic that has no effect in a viral. It can also have side effects like allergy which can cause swollen eyes.

I will suggest that you withdraw both the medicines and see if she gets better.
If she does not get better by tomorrow, kindly see a doctor.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks
Dr Vaishalee
