Allergy is possible: Checking for common allergies (dust mites, hay fever, foods) may detect a possible cause of both headaches and puffy eyelids. Or she can just try taking an anti-histamine, such as Claritin or Benadryl (diphenhydramine) before going to bed. If this doesn't work, she may need additional tests, including an MRI of the brain.
