It would help if you indicated where in the sky you saw this object at what time, then we might be able to give you a good guess which one you found. The NGC object in the 3000's are mostly lost in the Sun's glare and will be out of sight until this winter. Most objects in the 3200's and 3300's are galaxies, but there is the very bright planetary nebula NGC-3242, which looks like a bluish eyeball. It is however not a large object.
