Try an over the counter product called Demurest. It is a poison ivy/oak mousse that not only makes the pain bearable but also helps with drying. Seriously, you should see a doctor if your face and eye lids are involved. Good luck

From personal experience I know just how horrible this situation is. For one you probably look like Freddy Crugar and scare little children jk....but seriously if poison oak gets in your eye, it could cause blindness. Usually I'd just tell you to "suck it up cupcake" , but near the eyes is dangerous. There are Cortisone (steroid) shots available that will speed up the recovery period but you MUST go see your primary care physician right away. Good luck!!

Cortizone. It's over the counter and wont clog pores! It stops the itch and redness.
