Sore eyes or red eyes can be from bacteria, virus, or irritants. The best way is to wash eyes with clean tap water as often as thirty minutes especially when there is discharge. Rubbing the eyes is not advisable as red eyes can be from foreign body. rubbing will create abrasion in the conjunctiva will will further damage the eye. In case of foreign body the best thing is to close the eye for a minute or two. Tears will come out and it will create mucous that will coat the rough surface of the foreign body. This will no longer harm the surface of the eye. If the red eyes persists for about a day, it is best to consult your family doctor. Red eyes can also be due to problems inside the eyes and it will need expert physicians. Take good care of your eyes always.
