Redness In Eyes. What Is The Reason And Suggest Remedy
Hello Doctor,
I am a Software Engineer by profession. I have been experiencing redness in my eyes for couple of months. My eyes remain clear for the whole day. The redness happens most of the times around evening during working days. Although I take regular breaks during working. What may be the possible reasons? And what remedies do you recommend?
Thanks

Welcome to HCM.
Most likely it is due to excessive strain on eyes after continuous work on computer.
Give some relaxation to your eyes in between work.You can wash it with water.
It might be due to dry effect after continuous sitting in the air conditioned office.
Get examined your eyes for beginning of any visual error.
You have to start anti allergic, artificial tear drops under guidance of your ophthalmologist.

Hello,
Since you are a software engineer, you would be working with the computer for long hours. Your symptoms of redness during evening of the working days can be computer vision syndrome.
The treatment is by taking regular breaks during working, using antireflective coated glasses, avoiding use of air conditioners during working with computer.
The medical treatment is by use of artificial tear eye drops.
Thank you
