My eyes have been tearing up which makes them burn like the dickens! The only thing I've found to stop it is castor oil but I think my issue might be a bit of herx from something I've been using.
For infection, I'd apply charcoal patches to both eyes, put a sleep mask on to hold them in place and take a nap.
Charcoal house has a good, super simple video that shows how to make charcoal patches. I'd make a couple, pop them in the fridge to firm up, cut them into eye-sized pieces and keep them in a ziplock in the fridge so I could apply them when I go to bed or just whenever I could take time to lie down for a while but it's going to feel extra good no matter when you apply them so...plus, eye-sized patches would also be perfect for bad bee stings, mosquito and spider bites so I'd be covered for that, too!
