[QUOTE="Jusrme, post: 2334307, member: 516850"] Yes, I also have this problem. A week ago I awoke with a bloodshot left eye, was rather concerned so saw an opthalmologist who said my eye looked fine generally but gave me some steroid drops to reduce the redness. A week later the redness has gone, unfortunately the other eye developed the same issue just as the first clears up. Am just starting the same steroid drops in the other eye. Doctor told me I had dry eyes and as well as the steroid drops to use lubricating drops as well (over the counter from chemist or optitions) I have noticed that my blood sugar control has been a bit high as well, so will be keeping a close watch on this over the next week as well, as obviously this could possibly be the cause of the redness. Below is my eye this morning on the first day of the redness. My other eye which was red a week ago and has has a week if treatment is fine. My gut feeling is this is caused by blood sugars getting a bit high combined with "slightly dry eye" I will update in a week. [/QUOTE]
