How Can swelling And Pain In The Eyes Be Treated?

Went for a swim in the ocean. I felt sand was in my eye... could find none. My eye started watering and became painful, sensitive to wind. I washed it out. Now, 6 hours later I feel intense pain, continuous watering, my nose is running, and the lid is swelling.
