Red Eyes, Sometimes Dry. Using Naphcon. Is That The Cause? Suggest Remedy

Hi my name is Grant. I am 17 years old and it seems like my eyes are just red usually more in the corner of then and they are very veiny. Sometimes they feel dry. I have been using naphcon a for about a year. I dont know if that is causing it. I really just want to have clear white eyes again and not have them look bloodshot all the time

Hi Grant, you are 17 years of age, your eyes are red in the corners, some times dry. you are using naphcon since 1 year.
Naphcon drops are meant for relief of redness, itching and dry ness of the eye, But should not be used for a long time.
Your problem appears to be due to some allergy caused by face powder, creams, soap etc used for face. Try to trace out such things and try to avoid , if no relief consult a ophthalmolagist for treatment. Thank you.
