OK, so reading for midterm and spending nights and nights on assignments, lab reports etc. has taken quite a toll on my eyes…Now, they are tired, red and kind of burning…I used Visine Cool a couple of times but it’s not really helping…I also splashed them with cool water but even that gives very temporary relief…
So, is there any home remedy or something else that gives longer relief? And, also, is there something one can do to actually prevent it from happening?
Well your lack of sleep and fatigue would do that to you...unless you have allergies as well.
Take a day off and relax. Don't strain your eyes, cover your eyes with a cold pack and lay down for a while. Also, try taking an antihistamine at night...see if that helps.
