I know its relating to Hayfever. Deffo wasnt like this last summer. Everyday i have swollen eyelids... since April. Have tried Hayfever tablets, i take eye drops everyday and ice cold face cloth at night. no success. can anyone recommend anything else? have been to Drs twice. Kinds thinking if its going to last til Sept id like to find something that works. ive no other symtons like blocked nose or anything. swollen eyelids is only thing so nasal sprays r pointless.

    I had the same but it was only in the morning.  It was the washing powder I washed the sheets with.  If yours is not just overnight it could be whatever you wash your face with because although it might not affect the rest of your face, your eyelids are the most sensitive part of the skin on your face.

      No mines last all day & night. I havent changed any of the products i use. I imagine its pollen related. Just finding the right tablets / eye drops to combat it. The ones the dr have given me dont seem to work.

    When the treatment does not work is the time the doctor should refer you to an allergy clinic.
