First be kind to myself. Then tell myself it will pass and last figure out what I eat etc and then take treatment or rest. Last talk to doctor

Eyedrops (sometimes medicated ones), sunscreen all the time (got 2nd degree/borderline 3rd degree sunburns during a flare), medications from the rheumatologist, drinking things high in electrolytes. It depends on what symptoms are being had during the flares.
