Home Remedies for Puffiness around Eyes

Broadly speaking, when you notice puffiness below or surrounding your eyes you can decipher the reason to it as you try to remember the previous day's activities. There were probably plenty of fluids that were drunk just before you retired at bedtime, or an excessive amount of salted foods were consumed all day or too much of salt content in a particular food or perhaps you had a late night out or stayed up most hours of the night. In any case, the body does not get enough time to drain the fluids at night and in most cases the fluids that show up near your eyes tend to get re-absorbed by the body as the day progresses.




It is imperative you get enough sleep at night. For an adult a good seven to eight hours of sleep is the best time to get your body to rejuvenate after a long day. That includes your tired eyes also get that much needed rest and relaxation.


In the morning when you notice the puffiness or if the swelling takes longer to go down, you can apply chilled cucumber slices over closed eyes for about 10 to 15 minutes. Wet tea bags that have been refrigerated can also be used to place over the eyes instead of cucumber slices.
