Anon - Treatment for swollen and itchy eyelids would really depend on what's causing the inflammation and irritation.
If it is some type of irritation or allergy then you may be able to find relief from an over the counter product available from a drug store. Drops known as artificial tears are also available, and they can often help in these situations. The pharmacist should be able to help you in determining which eye drops would be best for you to use, and they are relatively inexpensive.
In some cases warm compresses can help reduce the swelling. This is just applying a washcloth warmed with water to the area, with eyes closed, for several minutes at a time, for several times.
Good luck to you, both with your health concerns and your job interview! Pat
