NONONONONO!

Don't put more! It'll make the bloodshotness WORSE! :Q

:Dheh, that brings back a couple not so good memories :)
I've put in like 6 drops in each eye one time....
BIG MISTAKE!

<< Visine is rubbish.

The best that I have found is Naphcon-A, and it is made by Alcon. It's pretty spendy ($11.99CDN) but works waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Visine.
>>


I'm gonna start looking around for that stuff. My friend gave me a bottle of visine, so thats what I'm using currently, but when that runs out(soon) I gotta get a new bottle of red-eye remover :)

cheers :cool:

Another good one is made by Cibavision (the contact lens people), but for the life of me, I can't remember the name of it. :)

I have the same problem. I've tried everythhin. I've even gone to the eye doctor for it because I can't even wear contact lenses anymore. I tried some of the prescription stuff they gave me but it didn't work.

ok, i haven;t been updating every 30 minutes . . . but hey i have a life and i'm out and about :(
However, I'm here again. . .so lets check the eyes:

hmmm, they are both still bloodshot, but the visine eye seems worse than the clear eyes eye. I think i'll stick with the clear eyes one. However, maybe I should take the advice touted by some of the other memebers here and not use so much . . . .

dangit. All i want is clear eyes.
:(
