Q: I am an 18 years old boy having eyes red and yellow in colour for the last 5 years. I want my eyes clear. How can I get it?
A:Red and yellow means chronic inflammation. Please ascertain if it is due to allergy, infection or dry eyes. What all medicines have you used so far? Did you develop it as a child? Try cold packs and artificial tears, and wear protective glasses to ward of dust, sunrays and allergens. If you are splashing water inside your eyes, please stop it.
