  The eye and teeth nerves are interlinked. When you have the teething problems, you may have other eyes problems. Thus, the teething can cause your swollen eyes. You could use some medicine with anti-inflammation to release the symptom. In addition, you could take care of the diet and have the good rest which will make your problems reduce to some degree.

  I asked the similar question to doctor, but he said there was no exact connection between swollen eyes and teething. Teething can be uncomfortable. Some mothers complained that their babies got swollen eyes, purple bags under eyes when they were going through the teething period. The gum of baby might become swollen, which makes them feel pain and grizzly. These uncomfortable feel might make them bad feeding and sleeping. The bad sleeping could cause the puffy eyes indeed. The swollen gum might get infected or inflamed, which might be blamed for the swollen eyes too. As to your situation, did you get good sleep before you got puffy eyes? Or is there any problem you get allergy? Normally the puffiness can go off within a few days, if you get good sleep or the infection, inflammation or allergy cured. Yet if it is a long-term symptom, you should visit your doctor.
