bloodshot eyes

[pinkjinks58]

Hi

I've recently been getting bloodshot eyes and I'm not sure whether its to do with my diabetes.

I had my diabetic eye screening a few days ago and the photos of the back of my eyes came back fine, when I asked the lady that took the photos whether it was my diabetes she wasn't able to confirm.

Its mainly the bottom half of my eyes but on my left eye its really pink around the blue of my eye - does anyone else suffer from this due to their diabetes? It may have nothing to do with it but I thought I'd ask the question before contacting the diabetic clinic.

Thank you all

If it looks like the attached picture it may be a virus. I am not familar with anything like that being directly related to diabetes.

Conjunctivitis can make the eye red although I suspect they may have picked up on this at your eye screening, I would make an appointment with your gp and ask them to examine your eyes just to be sure.

I'll definately be seeing my gp then, was starting to get paranoid!!

I`ve had bloodshot eyes for sometime now too!
I have used some drops (Optive dual action lubricating eye drops) recommended by others on here which certainly helped but not cured my eyes so I`d be interested to hear if you find anything out
All the best
