Suggest Treatment For Swollen Upper Eyelids

I got swollen upper eyelids and my eye doctor said that I got an eye-allergy. I'm using naturale tears and Pataday but I doesn't help too much. My itching is minimum but the upper eyelids are very swollen

I would like to know if I should use warm ot cold compresses on my eyelids to diminish the swelling

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having swollen eyelids. Since you are having eye alletgies , it is responsible for swelling of eyelids.
The treatment is by use of anti allergic eye drops and cold compression.
Pataday is a anti allergic drug and you can continue it and along with this applying cold compression will help.

Thank you
