Now that we have talked about tea specifically as a known treatment for black eyes, what type of tea is going to do the most healing? That is what I have been asking myself and it is sage. Sage tea compresses are actually fantastic for you to put onto any black eyes as this particular herb has been known to treat not just black eyes but bruises in general.

Just brew yourself a pot of sage tea, make sure that you stick a cloth in there – let it cool down and lay it over your eyes for an hour. In an hour’s time, you will be able to see a remarkable difference in your bruises and black eye – I know that I did!

If you want a cure, sage is definitely a cure for black eyes if you repeat this process everyday until it is gone!
