Peppermint and Itchy Eyes

My eyes were dry and itchy, and my eye drops didn't seem to help a lot, so I thought of looking for some home remedies. I ran across a site which recommends peppermint treatment for itchy eyes. To do this, steep a peppermint tea bag in hot water. Let it cool, and place it over your eyelids.

That sounds like a great way to take care of it. I will have to keep it in mind for when my allergies hit me hard. I always prefer a home remedy over medication.

Thank you for sharing this! I do sometimes get itchy eyes, and I almost always have peppermint tea on hand. My kids would prefer this remedy to eye drops any day.

Interesting! I have never heard of this before, but allergies often get the best of my eyes so I am sure I will have a chance to try this. :)
