I am so so sorry for my silence these past few days...Nepa is something else over here...

Lets get to the business of tonight.

Have you been waking up to red, irritated, and tired-looking eyes?

Bloodshot eyes are more than just a minor inconvenience; they could be a warning sign for some hidden health issues.

It's important to figure out the root cause of your red eyes to maintain good eye health.

What's Behind Bloodshot Eyes?

Several factors can contribute to bloodshot eyes, such as:

• Lack of Sleep:
• Digital Eye Strain:
• Dry Environments: Exposure to smoke, air conditioning, or wind can dry out your eyes
• Allergies: such as pollens, dust, which often result in itchy, watery, and red eyes.
• Infections: Conjunctivitis (pink eye) and other infections cause inflammation and redness.
• Contact Lenses: Overuse or improper cleaning of lenses can irritate the eyes.
• Medical Conditions: Glaucoma, uveitis, or even high blood pressure can manifest as bloodshot eyes.

If you experience any of the following, seek medical attention:

• Redness lasting more than a few days without improvement
• Accompanying symptoms like pain, blurry vision, or light sensitivity
• Presence of discharge, swelling, or sudden vision changes
• Pain that worsens over time or occurs suddenly

Reducing Bloodshot Eyes

Thankfully, there are simple ways to alleviate bloodshot eyes:

• Keep Your Eyes Moist: Use artificial tears to relieve dryness and soothe irritation.
• Reduce Screen Time: Follow the 20-20-20 rule.
• Drink plenty of water to keep your eyes and body hydrated.
• Avoid Irritants such as smoke, allergens, or harsh environmental conditions.
• Practice Good Eye Hygiene: Clean your hands before touching your eyes and avoid rubbing them.

Don't Ignore the Warning Signs! Act fast because bloodshot eyes may seem harmless at first, but neglecting them can lead to complications like infections, vision problems, and persistent discomfort.

Be safe!
