Wow, ow. I realize you don't want to use chemicals, but uh, you need to. SO, for chemicals-- you need to take some Benadryl, which I believe is an antihistamine and might stop the swelling. I don't recommend you touch it, because that will only make it worse. Then I'd consider applying something to the effect of hydrocortisone cream, because it will stop the itching and you won't be tempted to touch it.

Without chemicals? Well, just don't touch it. Consider putting ice on it, which might help bring down the swelling. If your eye gets really swollen to the point that you can't see or you find it really hurts, you might do damage to your eye and you should probably seek some form of medical attention.
