What Causes Itchy And Blood Shot Eyes?

I have somewhat blood shot eyes, as well as some slight itching of the eyes. I also was recently treated for a UTI,(took antibiotics) but some of my symptoms are still persisting. I tested negative this time for a UTI, but there were traces of blood in my urine culture. I am wondering if my blood shot eyes, and my uncomfortability with what I thought was a UTI, are related?
