Optrex Bloodshot Eye Drops (10ml Bottle): Optrex Bloodshot Eye Drops relieves the redness of the eye caused by minor eye irritations, such as; dusty, smokey atmospheres, eye strain (using the computer too long) and chlorine in swimming pools can make the eyes red and bloodshot. When the eyes are red it is usually because more blood than normal is flowing through the small blood vessels of the eye.
Optrex Bloodshot Eye Drops are medicated to relieve red, bloodshot eyes fast. Its cooling formulation soothes the irritation and calms the redness of bloodshot eyes, restoring normal blood flow.
Why are my eyes looking red and bloodshot?
Lots of things can make your eyes look red and bloodshot, from lack of sleep to smoky environments and swimming in a chlorinated swimming pool. The bloodshot appearance is caused by the widening or dilation of the small blood vessels in the white part of the eye (the sclera), making them look more prominent.
What can cause red and bloodshot eyes?
- Pollution - exhaust fumes, smoke, dust and chemicals can all irritate the eyes making them red and bloodshot
- Swimming - The chlorine used in swimming pools can be particularly irritating to your eyes
- Staring at a computer screen for long periods can cause eye strain which in turn can lead to a bloodshot appearance.
- Lack of sleep - When we are tired our eyes can look bloodshot, particularly problematic the morning after a late night!
What are the symptoms of red, bloodshot eyes?
Your eyes will look red and the small blood vessels in the white part of your eye will be more prominent than usual. Your eyes are also likely to feel irritated & gritty and may also be slightly watery but there should be no pain. Most often both eyes will be affected.
Top Tips to avoid getting red and bloodshot eyes:
- Try and get plenty of sleep by avoiding repeated late nights
- When driving long distances take a break at least every 2 hours
- Wear goggles when swimming to stop chlorine irritating the eyes.
Directions:
- Ensure your hands are clean and dry and the bottle's seal is intact before use.
- Gently pull the corner of your lower lid down and tilt your head back.
- Apply 1 or 2 drops into your lower eyelid.
- Or, if you prefer, close your eye and apply 1 or 2 drops to the inner corner, then open and blink to spread the drops.
Caution before using Optrex Red Eye Drops:
- Don't use Optrex Red Eye Drops while or just before wearing your contact lenses.
- Wait 15 minutes after application before wearing contact lenses.
- Don't use Optrex Red Eye Drops more than 4 times in 24 hours.
- Optrex Red Eye Drops are not recommended for children under the age of 12.
