How do you treat a blood blister around your eye? I scratched my eye this morning and then I looked in the mirror and there was what looked like blood blister by the corner underneath my eye. I am not sure how to treat it.
How Do You Treat A Blood Blister On The Upper Eyelid?
If you're talking about the little blisters that you get on the actual inside of your eyelid, right along the ridge where the upper lid meets the lower lid when they close, I get these all the time.
They're very irritating, & can make your eye feel hot, dry & just plain uncomfortable.
What I usually do is this;
Wash your hands carefully.
Make sure your eye is clean by flushing it with either eye drops or a mild saline solution.
Take a clean piece of lint free material, a rough-ish piece of cotton should do it.
Dip it into prepared saline solution - if you made one up as an eyewash, above, you can use the same one.
Hold your eyelid up & carefully but firmly wipe this piece of clean cloth along the area where the blister is.
This will usually burst the blister & allow it to begin healing over.
You eye will feel instantly better too.
