Ayurveda suggests putting some rosewater on you eyes. It's best to get a spray 
bottle and spray a bit on your closed eyes. This cools them down. Get the 
better quality stuff from a health food store as it lasts longer but the 
regular RW is fine.

Sleep is usually the best solution for your eyes.

You mean you closed your eyes and put it on the closed eyes?  I want to try 
this.

Hi PT,
The usual disclaimer, 'Everyone is different', but virgin coconut oil calmed my 
eyes down when they were red, swollen, itchy. Of course, there can be many 
causes, and I don't really know what mine were, other than Lyme, but when CS 
didn't help as it had in the past, I gently wiped VCO into my  lids just before 
bed. It made a blurry film over my eyes, so I couldn't read easily, and just 
went to sleep, but my eyes were so much better in the morning.

Be well,
Léna
