Eyes swollen after visit to eye doctor

Eyes swollen after visit to eye doctor

My girlfriend had her eyes checked out yesterday for a routine checkup.. last night her eyes starting swelling up and turning red..

This morning she woke up with her eyes practically swollen shut..

Our concern is that this will take time away from work to heal, but thats not really an option for us..

Is there anything I could get for her or do for her that will help the swelling go down?

Why are you here? She should be calling the "eye doctor" that did the exam for advice.

For the swelling: cool compresses, artificial tears.

Find out what drops were used and in the future ask other "eye doctors" to use something else.
