i would not advise the use of epson salts on the eyes. this is likely to burn like crazy; perhaps making the condition worse. a boric acid solution or other eye washes available at the pharmacy would be better. there are over-the-counter eye drops that can help itching as well. red itchy eyes can be conjunctivitis which may be viral or allergic so if this does not resolve he will need to seek medical care.
use of epsom salts for itchy watery eyes. my husband has red itchy watery eyes. can i use an epsom salts compress to relieve these symptoms?
