Can Strep Throat Cause Red Eyes?

Can strep throat cause bloodshot eyes. The inner corners of my 7 year old's eyes are bloodshot. He has had a fever for four days now. Yesterday we took him to the dr. & he was positive on the rapid strep test. Could the bloodshot eyes be attributed to strep throat? Or, is it possible he has a virus as well that is causing that?
