Dr. Vishal Arora

One needs to check for uveitis or active inflamation if the redness is not going with the use of the drops you are using. Decrease your digital screen exposure as this kind of picture is also seen with digital eye strain http://www.arohealth.com/computer-vision-syndrome2.html

Hello doctor,I am a student so I sleep late and I rarely get a sleep of more than 7 hours and there's significant usage of phone while I'm awake. My eyesight seems to be normal but when I wake up in the morning, my eyelids are heavy and I find it difficult to keep my eyes open and there is minor irritation in the eyes. It goes away as the day progresses and after I wash my eyes properly in the morning. Please let me know what could be the problem and what medicine should I take to counter it. Thanks a lot :)
