Answer 1

it doesn't matter you want even remember this in the morning....

Answer 2

Drugs and alchohal

Answer 3

It can be caused by a variety of things. I remember my friend got it when she was throwing up a lot, but I don't know if that's your case. If you haven't got anything in your eye, then another possibility is just related to cold or allergies...

Answer 4

Irritation and dryness are the most common causes. Allergies, infection, and more serious symptoms can occur but are very rare. Also if you have contact problems (contact lenses) could also be affecting you. With your problem, just put in some eye drops every 2-4 hours in each eye that treat dryness, irritation, and/or inflammation. When your eyes have these problems, they become extra "red" or "bloodshot" your eye just receives more blood to remain balanced and help maintain fluid

Answer 5

Pink eye.

Answer 6

Weed or staring at a tv, or computer screen. =P

Answer 7

Depends, I know someone who gave his younger brother a bloodshot eye after shooting a Super Soaker at him...No wonder they tell you not to aim those at people's eyes...

Anyway, it could be anything: pressure, infection, allergic reaction, or pink eye.

Answer 8

tiny blood vessels that burst inside of the sclera

Answer 9

Rubbing it, no sleep, having a cold.pink eye, watching a lighted screen for long etc... Nothing is positive about it except how it looks!

Answer 10

Some sort of irritation, maybe you got dirt in it or something.  Or you could have a bacteria in there.

If it is painful, particularly in light, it may be pink eye.  I got pink eye from just a TINY tear in my contact lens...

So be careful, eyes are sensitive and fragile.  If it gets worse you should probably go to an eye doctor.

Answer 11

a black eye too.

Answer 12

lack of sleep

Answer 13

Allergies or pink eye. There's drops for both.
