I've been eating 1 brazil nut daily to get a regular dose of selenium, I've been doing that for a while now & the morning puffiness has pretty much gone (unless I get a rubbish nights sleep). There are other foods that selenium is in, but in much lower doses. With a bit of research I found that my diet was almost certainly pretty lacking in selenium. I noticed a difference in 1 to 2 weeks.
I do also have TED (thyroid eye disease)
I started with swelling around the eye & a vision change that was very gradual. Have you had your eyes checked recently?
Just thought I'd mention TED in case it wasn't on your radar
