What's wrong with my dog's eyes?

So I have a Pitbull and in the last week I have noticed some kind of eye irritation on his eye lids and underneath the bag part of his eyes with puffiness. I have been cleaning the skin with oxygen peroxide and using antibiotic ointment for the past 4 days but see no result. I don't notice him scratching but it is not any better or worse. I am trying to avoid taking him to the vet. Does anyone have any suggestions for a home remedy or should I just need to take him in?

    He could go blind because you're delaying getting him to the vet!!! Have you tried holding a warm bath cloth over his eyes which might relieve some of the puffiness.. Still, I feel you're endangering his health by procrastinating on getting him in to the vet!!!

    Just take him to the vet as soon as possible, the longer you wait and experiment the higher chance of making it worse.
