Hey, I've been dealing with a red eye for the past couple of days and it's really painful, especially when I open it. There's a lot of white color showing. I attached some pictures too. Are there any specific drops you would recommend, or any suggestions on what I could do to help with the pain?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my right eye. When I woke up this morning, it was watery and had turned a light red. This watery sensation is happening on and off, and I've been trying to ease the irritation with cold water. I remember something similar happening last year and used some medicine and eye drops that a doctor prescribed at that time. I've also tried Itone eye drops, which are ayurvedic. Should I keep using the old prescription or just stick with the Itone drops?

Question

I'm on my computer and phone a lot, and lately, my eyes have been feeling really tired and dry. I've been thinking about using lubricating drops like Refresh Tears or carboxymethylcellulose sodium every day to help out with this. Is it safe to use them daily, or should I be worried about any side effects?

Question

I'm really worried because my eyes have been red for the past couple of days. I've tried putting coconut oil around them and washing them with cold water. It helped a bit, but the redness still isn't gone. I'm thinking about using Refresh Tears eye drops. Do you think that's a good idea, and if so, how many drops should I use and for how long?
