I have swollen, itchy, red eyelids?

I've never had this happen before. I have woken up the past two mornings to severely swollen top and bottom eyelids. They are bright red, sting, itch and are very dry and it it's spreading to my temples and cheeks. It's turning into a rash on my temples and cheeks. My eyes themselves aren't really red but my eyes are dry, I am blinking every few seconds. It's also warm/hot to the touch. I'm not sure why or what to do. Ice packs soothe but don't fix and same with ibuprofen and Benadryl. Not sure what's wrong it what to do, I took a shower and washed my face and eyes multiple times but it didn't help. I've looked up what it could but and I still don't know.

It looks like a laser gif reaction to. Something in your Environment or you have applied to your eye. Pls avoid any cream or other products around your eyes. Wash your closed eye many times with cold water or ice on your lids. If it feels scaly and dry pls apply vitamins A and D ointment which you can purchase from the baby section of your nearby pharmacy or grocery shop. As long you get ride of the source it should get better. Good luck!
