Eczema around the eyes

I've got a flare up of eczema around my eyes and on my eye lids. It's quite irritated and sore at the moment. And a bit swollen up too. I've been putting my usual moisturiser of Aveeno on which usually works well but is just irritating it more. I've got a GP appointment on Friday as think it might need some steroid cream and eczema is flared up generally anyway. Any ideas of anything I can use/do to ease it in the meantime?

Just plain Vaseline smeared on at night will help, and is nice and inert.
