Slight red to whites of eyes

[calimike]

Hello the whites of my eyes have a slight redness to them.  I guess you can say they are slightly bloodshot.  This has been going on for the past 2-3 weeks, consistently, everyday.  There is no pain or dryness.  Just the redness.  Could this be due to new supplements I am taking or is there another cause?  It is very annoying to have this.  I am not allergic to anything that I know of except fo rthe medication tegratol which I am not taking.  Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you

You go to an ophthalmologist and have a real examination. Find one near you at www.aao.org

Well how am I supposed to find out what MY causes of this redness are and if it is serious?

The causes of red blood shot eyes are legion and too diverse even to discuss.  It would not at all be due to tegratol.  The commonness of blood shot eyes have contribution to hundreds of thousands of gallons of VISINE and MURINE sales over the years
