What can be done about red, swollen, bloodshot eyes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Find the cause: Redness and swelling are general markers of inflammation. The inflammation could have several causes, each treated differently. You can try lubricating drops but the best thing would be to see an eye doctor for diagnosis and proper treatment.
