To get rid of swollen eyes fast, several effective methods can be used depending on the cause:

• Apply a cold compress or cool washcloth on the swollen eyelids for about 10-15 minutes to reduce inflammation and numb the area, helping to decrease swelling quickly.
• Use chilled cucumber slices or cooled tea bags (green, black, or chamomile) on the eyes for 10-30 minutes. These have anti-inflammatory properties and help soothe and constrict blood vessels, reducing puffiness.
• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to help flush out toxins and reduce fluid retention.
• Avoid rubbing or touching the swollen eye area to prevent further irritation or infection.
• Use over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medicine if there is pain or significant discomfort.
• Get adequate rest and sleep to allow the body to repair and reduce puffiness.
• If allergies cause swelling, antihistamine eye drops may help relieve symptoms.

For cases like blocked oil glands or styes, applying a warm compress rather than a cold one can help open glands and promote drainage, reducing swelling. These remedies provide quick relief and aid in reducing swollen eyes effectively at home, but if swelling persists or worsens, consulting a healthcare professional is recommended.
