red eye

Rhoto work really well... feels really good when you put them in too

dude i was the same way get visine and put it in the cornor of ur eye

Ya I have heard it was a lack of oxygen in the bloodstream too.

yeah rhotos are the best they burn like a bitch at first but they work in like 30 seconds and then they feel like mints in your eyes its weird i like it though

opcon is by far the best shit to clear ur eyes up...it makes them almost too white, its crazy...the downfall of it is that it burns for a lil bit after u put them in, but ull be happy when u look at ur eyes 2 mins later, and it also costs like 8 bucks a bottle...which is why i just steal it.

TRUTH:

THC and/or other cannabinoids actually widen your blood vessels, making it easier for your heart to push the blood but forcing it to pump faster to get the blood around because the blood vessels are longer and wider. Your eyes get red because the vessels are wider and more blood is flowing through them faster. Carbon Monoxide would only be present in your blood if you're burning the weed, yet when you vapo or eat it your eyes still get red.

i thought the bloodshot eye thing was due to dehydration

I've been getting a lot of red eye lately. And my eyes feel dry too!

i don't get red eye too bad but my eyes do get glossy.
