A member asked:

Why do i always have bloodshot eyes in the morning?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Red eyes: Lots of potential causes. Could be blepharitis dry eyes allergies. Need to see eye care professional and don't try to treat with visine. Generally makes it worse and doesn't treat underlying cause of the problem, just masks the symptoms.
