red eyes?

bongbabe · #1 (**permalink**) 05-20-2002, 05:43 AM

every time i smoke i get hella red eyes. i've been smoking for about six months and they still turn tomato red after 1 bowl. i heard that fair skinned people get red eyes easier. is it one of those things that just goes away with time, like coughing? i go through visine like mad, but no matter how much i put in they don't turn white. after smoking 2 bowls it'll usually take 3-4 hours for my eyes to go back to normal. i'm thinkin this isn't normal. any ideas?

from my experience, the best eye drops known to man are Clear Eyes ACR.

I have olive skin and have been smokin' for ages and my eyes still go mega red after 2 cones or more. They look terrible, I look like I've been crying for 3 hours straight.

I have found 'clear eyes' are definately the solution, as thedude said.

I haven't come across anything that works better. I love that stuff, go through bottles of the shit!

And a 3rd "prop" for clear eyes!! I'm the "Red-eye" poster child!! Lmao

Well, we might as well have stock in Clear Eyes, guys, because I use them too. My eyes get hella red too freakin' soon when I smoke. I blame it on allergies when I need to but normally I just say "I am so fuckin' stoned!"

I am fair-skinned too but I think it's just weed. I don't know many people who don't get the sexy red eye effect. Yes, I said sexy. Red eyes can be sexy on some people!!!! Especially if you are stoned out when you look at 'em!!!!!

is it the smoke because i know cig smokers who never get red eye but when we smoke weed we all get it...must be the THC or something in your veins (that run through your eyes)

when i smoke my eyes do get redish but not as much, you can tell im stoned but my eyes aren't blood red like some of my friends and like u guys say u get

maybe cause i wear contacts?

dry eyes = red eyes

red eyes = dry eyes

I've noticed its different for me with different types of weed. Sometimes the whites of my eyes will be totally pink, but at other times they will just be bloodshot.

I get mad red eyes after smoking...but I never care...I want everyone to know I'm stoned wherever I'm at, and hopefully they'll see that's it's ok to smoke pot and still go about your daily tasks.

P.S. I go class absolutely torn out of my mind.

im almost positive that something about the cannabis makes the blood vessels in your eyes dilate.. also, if you hotbox then thatll make your eyes REALLY red just from all the smoke..

i used to get really red eyes too, but once i developed a bit more of a tolerance they went away along with drymouth, munchies, and all the other annoying stuff.. of course, if you dont smoke 3 times a day like me you should probably just use some visine red.. it tends to work alright

Yeah when I get chronic on my chronic (oh gawd... did I say that? I'm so fucking sorry...) where I'm smoking 3+ times a day my eyes don't get red at all. But when I smoke like I normally do (once a day or so) they get really really red. More so than anyone I know-

I've found that clear eyes makes my eyes itch. So I use visene and it works fine. I put it in BEFORE I SMOKE too and it works just the same. I do this cause I really hate putting them in when I'm stoned, I fuck it up really bad and it's just not a pleasant experience-

Oh if you're having bad problems with redness and want your eyes REAL white go pick up these eye drops called Opticron A, I believe. I've never used them but they're supposed to be the most hardcore stuff you can get.
Also, if you put in too much visene your eyes just get red again from all the visene you've put in.

THC makes you THINK you're dehydrated....so u get symptoms like drymouth and red eyes

my eyes get pretty bad some times...i notice if i smoke a hell of a lot then they wont get nearly as red next time i smoke
