Ok, I read your post and my fiance has the same things happen around here eyes as well. If you have found out anything about soothing the irratation please message me back. I have read just today that cucumbers help, baby shampoo and was the area with it, cortizone cream helps. I will be getting to the store soon to get all these, but if u are aware of anything else pleeease let me know. She is misrable when this happens. Also ice helps to restrict the blood flow to the affected area causing the swelling to slow down, figured I wood throw that in there.
