I switched my contact lens solution from bio true to opti free and now my eyes are really red. have i created a problem? i will switch back.

Nope: You answered your own question. Very common to have allergic reactions to new contact lens products. Go back to the old solution or else switch to a daily disposable lens that requires no solutions, which is kind of nice.
