I bought a "gel mask" that you keep in the refrigerator - to put on my eyes to reduce swelling.
Feels great, but only offers temporary relief. The skin under my eyes is continually puffy. Plus
my eyes are watery all day - for that I've been using eye drop lubricant. Again, I get temporary
relief, but I still have the watery eyes.
Anyone been successful at treating these symptoms ? Thanks !

A full face mask can stretch the skin and keep fluids from draining as they should, especially if you pull the straps a little tight. You might also check to make sure that it doesn't sit too closely to your eyes (mine tends to ride up during the night). And sometimes they leak--even a small leak into the eyes can cause them to become dry and irritated. I'm not sure what the answers are but I know you aren't the only one who suffers with this issue.
