A member asked:
What could be the cause of random swelling of your eyelids and the skin underneath my eye? i just woke up and both eyelids are swollen.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lid swelling: The two most common causes of this issue are allergies or blepharitis. If it itches, try cool compresses, artificial tears and allergy meds. If it does not itch, try warm compresses, artificial tears, ointment at night, and omega-3 fatty acid supplements.
