There are several causes for bloodshot eyes including alergy- so avoid eye makeup and skin products.
Avoid alchol, could you be alergic to a pet? Cats can often cause this reaction.
There are several over-the-counter products you can buy today that can help clear up red, tired eyes. You can use some of these products every now and then to help clear up bloodshot eyes. But, if you use them too much, you can get a condition called, "Rebound Hyperemia." Eye drops that contain the chemicals tetrahydrozaline or naphazoline are the culprits. These chemicals work by constricting the blood vessels in your eyes. This reduction helps eliminate the redness. However, use drops that contain these chemicals too often and your eyes will be more bloodshot than they already were! Why? Because your eye muscles will weaken because of the constant constriction.
To help relieve a mild case of bloodshot eyes, use this homemade treatment: close your eyes and splash cold water several times onto your eyelids. The cold water will help the blood vessels to constrict. The water will also help cool and lubricate your eyes.
To relieve a moderate case of bloodshot eyes, place two cotton balls in cold skim milk. Squeeze them out just so they're not sloppy wet anymore. Then, place a cotton ball on each closed eyelid. Sit back and relax for fifteen minutes. Then, remove the cotton and rinse your face thoroughly with cool water.
For a homemade treatment for bloodshot eyes that will erase the redness in your eyes quickly, close your eyes and place a very cold compress on your eyelids. Wrap up a bag of frozen vegetables in a clean, soft cloth. Hold the bag in place for half an hour, then remove it. If the vegetables are thawed, you better plan on cooking them for your next meal.
Grape seeds are excellent for your eyes, inside and out. You can eat grapes, seeds and all, juice whole grapes and drink them, or you can find grape seed supplements at your local health food store. The powerful antioxidants in the seeds will help make the blood vessels in your eyes stronger. Plus, they'll also help your vision.

you don't have anemia, do you? with sleeping 8 hours a day, that's plenty of sleep. only when you have anemia, you are short of oxygen intake, and a ton of sleep still make you tired. get a blood test to see if everything is good with you. liver function is important too. immune system issue. my brother-in-law's eyes are always red due to dryness in his eyes. it's like an allergy. he uses eye drops all the time to keep it moisten and clear.

you can buy clear eyes from your local chemist for the whites of your eyes, it comes in clear or blue. if your eyes are gritty and hot, it could be that like me you have dry eyes, i use visco tears. you can buy it over the counter at any chemist or get your doc to prescribe it for you. good luck. x ps the blue is great for giving your eyes sparkle, and they look wicked if you go anywhere dark that has ultra violet lighting,

Well, you could quit smoking dope...KIDDING! Seriously though, my hubby has the same prob. He just makes a budget for Visine. Although, I think there are prescription drugs out there for extremely dry red eyes. Oh, and don't use Clear Eyes...It makes your eyes blurry for a long time.
