Greetings!

Thank you for your question. I understand your worries regarding your condition.

For your information, the cause of red eyes can be divided according to the area of ​​the eye involved. Among the parts that can be found in the eyes include the eyeball , the eyelid, the sclera, the conjunctiva, and the tear gland (lacrimal gland). In addition, the cause of red eyes can also be further divided into two groups, either:

A) Red eyes without pain

  • Subconjunctival bleeding
  • Conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctival layer)
  • Episcleritis (inflammation of the lining of the episclera)

B) Red eyes with pain

  • Acute glaucoma
  • Corneal ulcer
  • Uveitis

Having vision problems? No need to worry no more!

Treatment depends on the cause of the disease. If it is caused by bacteria or fungi, antibiotics or antifungal medications will be given. Some diseases caused by viral infections also require antiviral medication. The medicine is usually in the form of drops on the eyes.

In order to know the causes, you may need a proper physical examinations and some lab test at clinic or hospital. Therefore, i suggest you to get a visit to nearest clinic for a better consultation.
