One eye is red and swollen

Sometimes when we wake up, we will find a lot of eye mucus on our eyes, and there will be redness and swelling. This situation is due to excessive heart fire and liver fire. In addition, some people will have red and swollen eyelids after waking up. This is due to excessive use of mobile phones or excessive reading before going to bed, which will cause dry and red eyes. Don’t worry too much about this symptom, you can use some simple and effective methods to treat it.

Looking at only one thing for a long time, such as reading, especially on the computer or TV, is very harmful to the eyes, and redness and swelling of the eyes may occur. The best way is to use softer light from the TV or computer, divert your eyes from the things you are staring at, or close your eyes and rest for a while, or soak medicinal millet grass or chrysanthemum in water and apply it to the eyes with a towel.

This may be more serious. The eyes are very red and swollen, there are foreign objects around the eyelids, and the eyes appear dirty and painful. This is probably a stye. In this case, it may not be very obvious in the first one or two days, but you must drink plenty of water. If it lasts for a long time, a big bag will grow, so you have to be careful in this situation and go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. If it is too late, you will have to have surgery.

Your eyes are severely swollen, but not very painful. This may be related to the fact that you drink too much water at night. Drinking water at night will put a huge burden on the kidneys, so your eyes will be swollen. This is generally not a big deal. Just try to avoid drinking less water at night, and the symptoms will subside on their own.

There are also some eye diseases such as conjunctivitis and keratitis. If it is just ordinary pain, just put some eye drops on it. If it is serious, we should still go to the hospital for treatment. Alternatively, you can place a hot towel on your eyes to provide some relief.

If your eyes are swollen and painful and your vision is blurred, we can use tea to fumigate your eyes. Practice has shown that this method is very helpful in restoring vision. Put the freshly cut tea on the table, put your eyes half-open on the rim of the cup, and cover the rim of the cup with your hand to prevent the heat from dissipating too quickly. It takes about 10 minutes, at least once a day, and after a while you will feel much clearer. If this happens, you might as well give it a try. If it is serious, you still need to go to the hospital.
