    There are some home remedies to treat swollen eyes in the morning. Use your fingers to tap the area around your eyes and massage the swollen area. Another effective way to get rid of swollen eyes is cold compresses. Place the cold compresses on your eyes for several minutes and see whether it works or not. Some people will place slices of cold cucumber on the swollen eyes to help reduce the puffiness. You can try all of them and see which one works best for you.

    There are many reasons may cause eyes swollen. For example, your eyes may appear swollen because of heredity, allergies, stress, fatigue and crying etc. And the swollen eyes can also be caused by alcohol consumption, dehydration or excess sodium. Therefore, if you want to reduce swollen eyes, first of all, you need to determine what causes your eyes swollen. If your swollen eyes caused by allergies, you'd better take allergy medicine like Claritin or pseudoephedrine etc.

    If you got the swollen eyes in the morning, do not drink too much water or beverage before you go to bed, too much. Determine if your swollen eyes are caused by allergies, especially seasonal allergies. Taking an allergy medicine will help temporarily. If these medications do not help, talk to your doctor. Icing and massage on the eyelid and skin around your eyes also will be helpful.
