Question

What are some good remedies for the red eyes that accompany glaucoma?

Answer 1

uh........uh...........u have it too?  uh

Answer 2

check with dr. first, but visine(if able to use) and smoke marijuana supposedly.

Answer 3

Don't use over the counter drops like visene! This is a vascular inhibitar and will make your eyes even more read when it wears off!

Instead talk to your doctor about your red eyes and ask if you can switch drops and if there is anytthing you can take.

I'm sorry you have glaucoma, but doesn't the eye drops make your  lashes a lot longer and beautiful?

Answer 4

I just use Visene

Answer 5

wow.. you seemed to have contracted a sore eyes which is apparently a contagious air borne bacteria... better consult an eye doctor now...

Answer 6

Maybe it's not glaucoma to blame as much as the "chronic" medicine you get for it...

...try some eye drops or something...

...as for the uncontrollable urge to eat...  I can't really help you

Answer 7

It's not the glaucoma. It's your BAK-preserved and irritating glaucoma drops. Ask your doctor about travatan Z, which is BAK-free, and thus much healthier / safer on the eyes.

Whatever you do, do NOT use visine- visine has BAK in it and makes the whole dang problem worse.

You can, however, try using a gentle and preservative-free eye lubricant drop (any drug store will have them) at a doctor approved time before or after your glaucoma drops- usually 15 minutes either way. Also, cooling your eyes can help reduce the redness some.  Put two or three pieces of ice in a baggy and add cool water- put a lint free cloth between you and the baggy, or if it's not too cold, put the baggy directly on your eye, for a few minutes- it should soothe things down.
