Red eyes are often caused by allergies, dry eyes, or minor irritation. Most cases can be managed with preservative-free artificial tears and avoiding eye rubbing. However, sudden onset with pain, vision changes, or discharge requires immediate medical attention to rule out serious conditions.
Sleeping in contacts significantly increases infection risk. Even with 'extended wear' lenses, daily removal is safest for long-term eye health. Contact lens-related infections can lead to corneal ulcers and permanent vision loss.
Eye twitching is usually stress, caffeine, or fatigue related. Reducing screen time, getting better sleep, and lid hygiene often help. Most twitching resolves on its own, but persistent twitching lasting weeks may indicate neurological issues requiring further evaluation.
