fluid pocket on eye

This morning I got something in my right eye, like a spec of dust or a bug. It seems like I got it out, I see nothing in the eye now. My eye is irritated which I would expect. What I didn't expect is what looks like a pocket, or bubble of clear fluid on the bottom half of my eyeball. Not much pain, just an irritating feeling against lower eye lid as one would expect from this bubble. My guess is to let it alone and it will fix itself. What should I do?

Thanks

It is probably conjunctival swelling.  It should get better.  I would see an ophthalmologist if there is no improvement by tomorrow morning.
