Do you have swollen eyelids? 👁️

👀 A swollen eyelid happens when excess fluid (edema) builds up in the tissues around the eyes. This causes inflammation and makes the eyes look swollen. Swollen eyes affect both upper and lower eyelids with or without associated pain.

‼️ From eye infections, injuries, trauma, or allergies, there are varying causes of swollen eyelids. For rare cases, swelling of the eyelids could indicate a serious and potentially sight-threatening health problem that could involve orbital cellulitis, Grave’s disease, or ocular herpes.

👩🏻‍⚕️ If the swelling persists, worsen, or change, it is highly advised to visit your eye doctor immediately.
