Hello all,

This is my first post here and I am wondering what one can do to reduce inflammation in the eye in general besides medicine. What did you find and what worked best for you?

Howdy!

Sorry to hear you are struggling with this. 😣 inflimmation in the eye can be quite painful... aside from medication, what helps me is following the the low inflammatory diet, tons of water ( 6 liters) and funny enough ice packs ever days. Also taking time every day for every day for firnrss and meditation/prayer.

Hope this was helpful !

I have scleritis which is inflammation in the eye and it is sooooo painful. Besides the steroids to reduce inflammation and painkillers I have found an eye mask you can freeze and this helps with the pain. Usually try to stay out of any light as light intensifies pain and wear the darkest sunglasses I purchased from opticians. Hope you feel better soon.
