Hi , I Woke Up With One Very Red And

Hi , I woke up with one very red and gooey eye at 3 am. I rinsed it with an eye wash and went back to bed. It seemed less gooey a few hours later but still red and swollen. I used the eye wash two more times and it is still very red. It does not itch. We are in the middle of a snowstorm, so I am unable to go to a doctor today. Is it possible that this will resolve on its own?
