Reddish Eyes After The Use Of Computer. Not Responding To Oclusan Eye Drops. Medication?

the inner corner of my eye is red for about a month now. (the veins..) it s not itchy nor i didn tfeel any pain at all. sometimes, after using my laptop for about an hour makes my eye feel tired. i used oculosan eye drop for i thought it s just my allergic conjunctivitis . (i woke up one time with a slight discharge and kinda itchy so i assumed that it was my allergic conjunctivitis again.) after using oculosan, the redness faded but after using computer or my mobile phone, it turned into red again. :( so now, i used visine refresh for i assumed that maybe this is just dry eye .. the inner lower lid is also not normal. it s color brown and the appearance is like when i had my allergic conjunctivitis. help me. :(

Hello

You should have splashes of cold water at least 3-4 times a day which will help in wiping off the dust and provide some moisture also to the eye. Along with lubricating eye drops (which you are already using) you should use some anti-inflammatory eye drops. You should try to blink while working on computers when your eyes start getting tired.

Also, you should get a refraction (vision test) done for correction of refractive error if any.

Hope this helps.
