That looks painful. I'm no help, but following in case I run into this problem.
I got no help. Took her to the vet they told us tylosin and terramicin. Two things we already had luckily. Neither worked. I clean out the chickens eye3 times a day and put the terramicin on it. Unfortunate
 
Can you tell us if she is eating or drinking? They do need to drink a normal amount of water to get the antibiotic. Have you added any new birds to your flock recently? How long has she been sick? What are all of her symptoms? It could be mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG,) which is a contagious chronic respiratory disease. It can cause watery, swollen or bubbly eye with sinus infection. It can also affect laying eggs, and will be in the chicken’s body for life. Symptoms usually improve with antibiotics such as Tylosin or Denagard/Tiagard unless they get a secondary infection in the air sacs. Terramycin or Plain Neosporin can be applied into the eye 2-3 times per day. If there is pus around the eye and sinus, it needs to be removed.
