I have puffiness under my left eye only. What could be the cause of it and how can I get rid of it? (Photo)

I have slight puffiness under my left eye. In the morning it tends to be bigger and as the day goes by the puffiness subsides, but still apparent. There's no pain at all, but sometimes it is itchy. I don't want to do any eye surgery as I don't believe this is severe enough for that. In the pictures you can see it is only one eye affected. Please help as I truly would like some help with this issue.
