She's quite young then. She must feel very down with a swollen eye like that :(.
I'd like to hear what the vet has to say. Hopefully she'll be on the mend soon! :)

Get the vet to take swabs and get them tested, it could be a bacterial infection in which case she may need eye drops.
Staffies are softer than you think.
