How to avoid it and what to do when yo have it? Having red eyes by itself can just mean they're irritated , sensitive or tired. But red eyes accompanied by tearing and gritty feeling, discharge, and blurry vision may mean a case of sore eyes. Sore eyes are generally caused by a virus, or in some instances , by bacteria. We normally get sore eyes by handling objects contaminated by the tears of a n infected person-they are not caught airborne or transmitted by looking at someone who has it. Sore Eyes heal in one week even without medication but ophthalmologists can give antibiotics to hasten healing. Don't spread it around and here are tips to avoid spreading eye infections. Don't scratch your eyes.Use tissue paper when wiping tears-it's easier to dispose of. Hanky or towels are no-nos. And don't forget to wash your hands frequently. Eye drops cannot cure sore eyes. They may simply make the red eye look whiter by making the eye's blood vessel smaller and thus less visible.
