Suggest Medication For A Bloodshot Eye

I started using the bausch and lomb ultra contacts today. I put them in at 7 a.m and at 5:15 p.m i put rewetting drops in them. When i did they stung terribly and my eyes turned bloodshot. I thought maybe it was the drops so i bought the bausch and lomb brand. They still burned and turned bloodshot again. I took them out and had trouble because everytime i touched my eye it would burn (but just on the bottom of my eye)

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having red shot eyes after wearing contact lenses. This indicates probable infection or allergy.
The use of contact lenses should be stopped till the redness resolves.
The treatment is by use of antibiotics and anti allergic eye drops depending on the cause.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
