Sore eyes

My eyes feel as if they've been kneaded over and over again like dough. That's how sore they feel. In Hokkien, we say that the eyes are " siap siap". I would dearly like to put some hot tea bags on them right now, but the only teabags I own is the 何人可凉茶, and somehow I don't really relish the idea of having my eyes smell like bitter herbal tea. Gimme chamomile and lavender now!!! No cucumbers in sight, so I had to resort to putting cold spoons on my eyes. Two metal spoons in the freezer for 30 minutes, then place them gently on the eyes. It doesn't work as well as hot teabags, providing only temporary relief, but still, better than nothing. Darn...siap siap...
