One blood shot eye
10 Answers
I woke up this morning with one very blood shot eye. It doesn't hurt and isn't pouring with tears.
Could this be the first signs of conjunctivitis??
Thanks xx

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Mr Jules had this recently and couldn't remember getting anything in his eye, however he went to the Drs who told him that it would get better on it its own within a week which it did, but if you are worried or unsure about it then it might be best to get it checked out. BTW whenever I have had conjunctivitis it has never been preceded by being bloodshot and haven't heard of this as a first sign so hopefully not that.
I had this just after new year, saw my optician and was advised to see if it got better and to use comfort drops and keep my contact lenses out til it got better which it did.
The bloodshot bit lasted just under a week but it left my eyes quite dry and irritated so couldn't wear my lenses for a while.
As said above, I used to get conjunctivitis when I first wre lenses about 14 years ago and it didn't start with a bloodshot eye.
