How to reduce inflammation in eyes due to sun burn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye patches: The best way to treat corneal injuries ,cuts, stratches, burns etc is to patch the eye to give it rest. But that's not so practical for your case, is it? You can try patching one eye then the other. Also ice compresses and liberal use of artificial tear drops, make sure the eyes are moiterized and do not dry out, do not use contact lenses until the inflammation gets better.
