eye closed

Hi, I noticed my tortoise keeps their eye shut. It seems a bit swollen and red. It was normal in the morning. What can I do? It’s getting a bit late where I live and they’re going to sleep soon. I already tried giving them a bath and gently washing the eye. Hoping it will be better in the morning.
