Hello
It seems from the history that you are having chronic red eyes. The common causes are dry eyes, chronic conjunctivitis, allergic conjunctivitis...
You are being treated for dry eyes with artificial tears, since it is not responding need to rule out other causes like chronic conjunctivitis and allergic conjunctivitis.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
