I noticed this morning that my 5 week old chicken has got swollen and puffy eyes. She’s been acting normal and the rest of the flock don’t seem to be infected. What is this? Should I be concerned? Is there anything I should do?

Welcome to BYC.
The eyes dont appear to be swollen to me. However, ammonia fumes from soiled bedding could be a factor.
Can you post a photo of a different chick for comparison purposes?
 
I think I see what she's talking about. In the second picture especially the chick appears to have a poofy pink ring around its eye.
