I use a warm pack for comfort followed by a cold pack which helps reduce swelling. I also wear ski goggles which I believe helps with holding moisture close to the eyes.

For redness and bloodshot eyes caused by thyroid eye disease (TED), it's best to avoid redness-relief drops like Lumify. These products often contain decongestants that can cause a rebound effect, worsening redness over time. Instead, focus on lubricating eye drops or artificial tears to address dryness and irritation. Consult your doctor for personalized advice and ensure any product you use is safe for TED.

Try to see if you would be eligible for a treatment. I know many times I used eye drops and it made my TED symptoms much worse.

I am in a medical trial for a new TED drug that hasn’t been named yet but the results have been very good. Illumina Medical is still looking for participants in Kissimmee, Florida.
