Apply a small amount of the herb arnica to the closed eyelids, or make a warm compress with it. Arnica is renowned for its healing and pain-reliving qualities, according to AnniesRemedy.com. You can find it in a cream at your local health foods store. Be sure to test for any allergic reaction first by applying a small amount to the inside of your forearm and waiting 24 hours to check for irritation.

Put tea bags on your eyes. Tea works well to relieve tired, achy eyes. Try dipping two black or chamomile tea bags in warm water and then place one over each eye for 20 minutes. Do this as often as need to relieve discomfort.
