Cucumber contains Calcium, Vitamins A and C and Magnesium, and is known for its soothing properties and will help relax eyes and reduce redness of the eyes. Cucumber water or thin slices can also be applied to the skin around the eyes especially if this skin is looking dry. Leaving the slices on the skin for at least fifteen minutes while relaxing will make your eyes look like new!
Dried leaves and flowers of this plant are added to boiled water, after which the infusion is strained and used to bathe the eyes, to reduce swelling and itchy eyes. People, who spend a lot of time working behind a computer, experiencing itchy or burning eyes, will also benefit from this remedy.
