How can you make a swollen eye go down?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Elevate head @ night: Eye swelling often accompanies allergic reactions or surgery. Other than antihistamines and oral arnica montana (available at health food stores) which may help your body reabsorb the bruising and swelling, gravity is your best friend. Sleep with a sofa cushion under your mattress so that your head is above heart level. Dr. Tholen.
