cold compress, like a bag of frozen peas, lie down, put the compress on your eyes until you can't stand it, the swollness should go away.

there are a couple of things that i do. The first thing is to take an anti allergy pill. I usually take benedril. I know this is meant for sinus and stuff but it has worked for me in the past. Anther thing that you could that would be less drastic is to get a warm wet cloth and keep it on your eye for a while. Whatever you do dont use a cold cloth. this will slow the blood flow and can cause further swelling. Also if you have it out some witch hazel on the rag. this is a liquid and if you mother is a nurse she might have some.

Buy a pure Rose water Brand Dabur prefered. Pour 2 drops and see the swollen eyes come normal in minutes. This is country medicine of india and has no side effects. You can also check with the doctor for purity and no side effects but a doctor rarely vouches its curability Try. We used the same when we were infected with severe eyr virus. CONJECTIVITIS
ciproflacin suggested by doctors have no use but rose water did the trick. Try

First, you need to get rid of the stress that's making you cry or the problem will persist. You can try cucumber slices or teabags (hopefully green tea), or, and this may sound gross, but prepration H reduces swelling in more than just one place, and that's your quickest fix.

aloe vera juice from a health food store. put into the eyes after putting it in an eye dropper will heal it.place a cool water compress on your eyes also.

ice like get a bag of ice and lay it over you eyes and leave it on for 10 min then take it off for 10min to prevent headaches on top of your pain if head ache increase the time between leaving it on and off .

chilled cucumber slices..close your eyes and lay these on your eye lids..(soak in a warm tub...ultimate relaxation>..ahh)...
also they have eye gel...kinda expensive but works..but i use the chilled cucumbers....works for me..and pretty much inexpensive..only need 2 slices..can keep in fridge or soak in water then freeze....(may cause headache if too cold).
gel eye masks work well...
hope you feel better!
