How to get rid of swollen red eyes from crying?

No easy way: Lacrimal glands swell. Ice may help. Best is time and happy thoughts.

Cool compresses: Other strange but supportive care: tea bags to eyes; cucumbers to eyes (raw not cooked); hydration with waer; egg whites, and eyedrops (gets the red out) and make up.
