A member asked:
What medicine to intake if you have a swelling eye crease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Many times, the swollen crease is due to irritation and a Hydrocortisone cream 1% will help. But this remedy should only be use a few times only. It can be harmful to the eye if not monitored for eye pressure and cataract development. If this problem persist, you should see an ophthalmologist.
