Any suggestions to deal with the eyelid edema? I have attached a photo of my eye today.....

Donna,

The best way to treat the puffy eyelid is to find the best method of controlling your cluster headache... Until you do that, the eyelid will continue to puff up.

Having said that, a cool damp compress may help.

Then there's always an eye patch. The eye is going to get noticed anyway... If someone asks... and they will... say "Har Har."

Take care. We know all this isn't fun.

V/R, Batch

Well, that made me laugh. I've always had an affinity for pirates. I think I will go that route.... ;D
