You may splash cold water on your eyes, or keep a towel soaked in cold water on your eyes. You can also pack some ice cubes inside a towel and place it over your eyes. This will instantly reduce the puffiness under your eyes. Cold spoons can also be very effective in treating your swollen eyes. Keep a few spoons in the freezer. Place the round bottom of the spoon over the puffy area for about five minutes. You will notice the puffy eye look vanishing in the thin air!
