How Can itchy Red Eyes Be Treated?

Last week was sound asleep & it felt like someone put some salt in my Right eye. I poured water on my eye for 5 minutes. The next morning the corner of my eye was bloodshot & itchy. I have been using artificial tears several times a day. Sometimes my eye waters & it is clear. I have no crust in the am but sometimes during the day have some light green mucus.
