    Hey Everyone,

    So lately I have been quite depressed and obsessing over the appearance of my eyes now. It's a weird obsession, constantly checking how "red" they are. I think some of this "redness" may be in my head. My sister and boyfriend keep telling me my eyes are never red, and they honestly think I am crazy..am I? Is this just all in my head? My boyfriend keeps telling me that everyone has SOME veins in their eyes, to me mine seem bad. But I am VERY hard on myself which is making this whole thing worse. I have always been this way. I am having a hard time with the fact that my eyes aren't bright white like they used to be... I think I need to see someone. Can anyone else relate? Am I crazy?

    I can see a few veins in my eyes up close too and I notice some all over slight redness from time to time--not bright white like some people have. I've asked a corneal specialist about it who said it meant nothing, but I think it's a side effect of having chronic dry, irritated eyes but I don't know the exact physiologic mechanism of it.
    You're not crazy, just concerned about your eyes.

      Hey there

      Probably this is no longer an issue... however just for the record.

      Last year I was always looking at my eyes and comparing them with other! Finally (after looking to millions of eyes) I get to the conclusion that is a side effect and most of the people that I knew have red eyes some because don't sleep much, other because they spend to many hour at the computer... So now I don't care (not totally true, but I don't remember as often!).

      As Jade sair... you just concerned about your eyes.

        Hey there
        Yes this is still an issue. I constantly "check" them and always think ppl are starring. I know they aren't beat red but to me they look off. As bad as this sounds, I would rather have the pain and dryness over the redness, though they come hand in hand. Thank you for the kind reply.. I will post a pic soon.

          Hello Faith

          Btw I like your nickname

          I think we think too much (eheh) When I am talking to someone I am always looking at their eyes and thinking... "Their eyes are not red, so not dry eyes"... "His eyes have red veins... he probably have dry eyes!"
          Now I don't look at my eyes, so my imagination it's under control (But I still look at others... ops!)

          Feel free to share. We will be honest for sure!!

          All the best!
