Answers:
Vasoconstrictors, like visine, ironically cause redness when used commonly!. This is called 'rebound' redness!.

Wear an airline-style sleepshade to sleep, and use a 100% preservative free drop like 'bion tears' or 'refresh classic' in -single use vials- both right before going to sleep (a tiny, tiny amount, don't 'flood' your eyes with it!) and in the morning when you wake up!. This is safe to use whenever your eyes are dry- you do not need to worry about over-using preservative free drops!.

Stay away from the visine!. Simply put, it's bad stuff!. Yeah, your eyes will probably be red for a while- but stay away from it for two weeks or so (and don a pair of sunglasses in the mean time) and the redness should go away!. If it doesn't, see an eye doctor!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

You are addicted, but not in the way you may think!. Your eyes have simply gotten used to being *helped* all the time and are having trouble coping with life on their own!. Like many substance addictions, you need to taper off: use Visine, but cut down, by 25% for 4 days, 25% more for 4 days, etc!. unti lyour eyes are used to living without it again!.

no they arent addicited!. but just dont use it!. your eyes are used to them having chemicals to make them look normal!. this happened to me when i slept with my contacts in for very long peroids of time!. when i eventually took them out they hurt without them!. here applies too!. it just so used to having drops applied, that they turn red and are dry without it!. it should clear up on its own!. if not go to the eye doctors, and im sure they will help you out, and give a different eyedrop, you may have a virus or somthing!. but im no doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No the Visine is addicted to your eyes!. The only way to ween the visine off your tasty, tasty eyes is to cut them out!. With a spoon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
