What Causes Redness In Eyes?

When I wake up in the morning my eyes are red. The opthamologist told me that if I showed up at the morgue they would think I was strangled to death due to how many broken blood vessels I have. I also have a rapid heart rate. Faster than normal for the past few months. I went to a primary care, a cardiologist, and opthamologist, and they all thought it was anxiety due to the recent birth of my child. I just wonder if I could have emphysema or sleep apnea or something that connects all those. Red eyes, palpatations at night and rapid heart. I wake up with my heart racing, it also races after I eat and anytime a normal stress trigger like an audition, (I live in LA), comes up it gets above a hundred, like 104 bpm. My wife thinks I am a hypochondriac, because I have gone to the ER like 4 times over this and everytime they say anxiety. However, I just worry they missed emphysema or sleep apnea.
