Woke Up With Swollen Eyelid. Had Used Sauna And Jacuzzi. Treatment?
Hi I have woken up with my eyelid swelled up. Last night I had a sauna & went in swimming pool/jacuzzi & I noticed after this my eye didn't feel right & was quite itchy not sure if it was caused by the sauna etc. I thought it would just clear last night. Now today it has swelled now very badly but enough doesn't hurt really but doesn't feel very comfortable either! Any advice would be great!! Thank you

Hello,
It is likely that you might have had a steam heat injury due to Sauna.
Do ice pack over the affected lid.
To prevent secondary bacterial infection topical antibiotic eye drops can be used.
If the symptoms are progressing then consult an Ophthalmologist.
