• How can I treat the chronic red eyes?

  If you get red eyes, you are not allowed to rub your eyes. Then you should cool your red eyes. A cool compress can relieve your redness from a cold virus or allergen. However, the best way is to see your doctor and let him check your eyes to find out the exact reason which caused your redness. Then the doctor can deal with your redness with special treatments.

• Is it possible to have healthier eyes if I wear glasses full-time?

  Nearly all lenses in glasses can provide UV protection?I have never heard about that.Some glasses with special coating may have the UV protection and polycarbonate lens can block the UV automatically but not 100%.Even it is true,there is no study showing that wearing glasses all the time can give you healthier eyes.
