Eye bath against irritated eyes
Anyone who works long hours on the screen, in air-conditioned rooms or wearing contact lenses knows it for sure, the eyes feel dry and tired, irritable, itchy or burning. On the other hand, you can do a good eye bath.
Since few have an eye bath at home, I recommend simply to try out an egg cup. The egg cup is filled with boiled 9% salt water (9 g salt in one liter of water) and until just before the top.
If you have, you can also take a stock of horsetail, elderberry, wormwood, marigold, fennel or eyebright.
I myself mostly use spring water with Himalayan crystal salt or a brew of 1/4 L spring water a TL eyebright herb, strained by the coffee filter.
The eye is now immersed in the cooled to body temperature liquid in the egg cup, to this you bend your head forward and puts the filled egg cup to the eye. Then you put your head back and hold the egg cup tightly to your eye, which will be opened and closed several times during the next ten minutes.
You can always use this application if necessary, I do it myself after work in the evening.
Finally, gently pat the eyes dry with a soft cloth.
Who does not want in the herbal kitchen, 100 ml eye bath cheapest option costs in the pharmacy about 3.00 euros and who does not come with the egg cup, eye baths cost from 0.99 euros (plastic) or from 1.40 euros (glass ).
