If there is a herp vet in your area, that would be your best bet. You may have to drive a bit. Call ahead and interrogate them a first to feel out how much they really know about herps (if they give you husbandry advice that you know is very wrong, find someone else). Taking a guess on dosage is liable to do more harm than good and if some kind of ointment is necessary it's not likely to be over the counter.

In the mean time, I'd flush the eye out with some saline solution and set the lizard up on paper towels. Stay clear of anything that could get in the eye.

Also evaluate your UV lighting. There have been reports of some bulbs irritating eyes producing symptoms that mimic an eye infection. Check out: http://www.uvguide.co.uk/ and make sure you're not using one of the problem bulbs.
