    My eyes get really red when I drink. Are there any eye drops I could put in to reduce this that are suitable for contact lenses.

    It possible that your eyes are dry and that because alcohol dehydrates you, the eyes dry out even more. You should visit your optometrist as they may be able to try a different type of contact lens that has more moisture in the lens.

    Any drops are only suitable to use for limited use - and must be used within s month of opening.

    If it's just dryness, try some artificial tears e.g. Artelac. They're available over the counter as single-dose eyedroppers (no bottle to go off).

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.
