Everyone has experienced having red eyes at one point or another. Whether it was due to itching or irritation, possibly an extra-long swim in some chlorinated water, or an allergic reaction to something, red eyes is one symptom that tends to occur often due to many different factors. But there are times when having red eyes is due to pink eye, otherwise known as conjunctivitis, which is normally caused by inflammation and bacteria in the eye. Other times, it could possibly be due to subconjunctival hemorrhage, which sounds much worse than it actually is since it refers to a bruise beneath the surface of eye. Thankfully most of these conditions that cause red eyes clear up using over-the-counter medications and time.
