Glad it feels better. But from the picture it looks as though there is a lot of swelling of the lid and the eye looks crossed. If the eye is (newly) crossed and you have any double vision, and or the eye is portruding compared to the other eye, I would be concerned about the possibility of an orbital cellulitis which is very (emergently) serious. Just on the basis of the picture, even if I was pretty certain it was viral, I'd have you on an oral antibiotic.

Don't mean to be an alarmist and it is very difficult to see what's going on just in the picture,
but it may be time to give the ophthalmologist another call.
