With the help of some hydrocortisone cream and no makeup the swelling of my eye is virtually gone. I can still tell that my under eye is still a bit puffy when I look down, but otherwise it's looking and feeling somewhat normal again. Thank goodness! I have to work tonight and it's not that I was self conscious about it, I just really didn't want to have people asking me what happened for 4 hours. The lid is still terribly itchy when I touch or rub it, but I shouldn't be doing that anyway
But whatever it was or how short lived the swelling was, any time waking up with a swollen eye is disconcerting. I'm just glad it wasn't any thing bad like an infection.
