Question: For the last month - month and a half, my eyes are always red, dry, irritated, and vision seems to be somewhat blurred due to it...no matter how much sleep I get. Hard for them to focus...especially far away. I get temporary relief when I purposely close tight for a just a moment. That happens at least 20 times a day. I use Visine (advanced for red eyes and irritated dry eyes), at least 3 times a day, but it only provides TEMPORARY (6 mins) relief to the irritated dry eye problem, but not the blurred vision or red eyes problem. I have been under overwhelming stress at work for about a month now. I am a graphic designer and I'm in front of a computer at least 8 hours a day. I get 6-7 hours of sleep each night without any problem falling asleep and staying asleep. This has been my sleeping schedule for the last 3 years with no problem except for nights that I would only get 4 hours of sleep. For the last 2 weeks I have been drinking more that time period, about 5 beers 4 to 5 days a week. I've worn glasses since I was 21. I have a stigmatization in my right only. I am a black male, 32yrs of age, 6'3", with a clean medical history. No medz at all. My last visit for my eye exam for my eye glass prescription was 4 months ago, which my vision was instantly a million times better after prescription for glasses was made. I wear them all of the time as I am supposed to.
My concern is more that the dry, irritation, is my ability to see as well as 2 months ago. Is there a quick fix for this? Any help in this problem would be greatly appreciated.
