Cold-Water Bath for the Eyes

“Few persons are aware what an excellent tonic a cold-water bath is for the eyes — not the ordinary sponge-bath, with closed lids, but opening the eyes and holding them open for a minute or more, in clear, cold water. If they are weak, put a pinch of salt in the water. Take a teacupful of water, and hold it to the eye, against the face, and open the eye in it. Open and shut two or three times, to wash out the eye. Then dry with a soft towel. Never rub your eyes.”
