I have red eyes, what should I do?

If you wear contact lenses…remove the contact lens…if the eye starts looking less red then the contact lens may need to be cleaned or replaced. If the eye does not go back to completely “white” then we do not recommend using a contact lens until you have been seen by one of our doctors….as you may have an infection that needs treatment.

If you do not wear contact lenses…we recommend coming in to get your eye evaluated to see if it needs treatment. Several things can cause red eyes…some need treatment and others do not… but the only way to know for sure, is for us to get a magnified look at your eye.
