A member asked:
I went hiking and my eyes were swollen when i reached the mountains peak. why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergic Response: A rapid onset of swollen eyes is often due to an allergic response to an environmental allergy. Eyes can get puffy, red, itchy, and teary after being exposed to allergens. There are over-the-counter allergy drops that can help if this happens often.
