Ouch! That is a severe reaction. No doubt it is because your contact was prolonged and you didn't notice it early. I don't know of any sure fire cure but down here they do say drinking milk or eating bread helps if you eat too much chile. Also, when they are making the fiery hot sauces that require roasting the chiles they are almost always roasted and ground outside - never in the house. Even outside, I've had my eyes tear up and burn just walking over to watch for a few minutes.
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
