red swollen, fuzzy vision and gritty feeling in eye. Feels like the eye itself is swollen (I know it is not). This has been going on for over a year, Neuro says it is not pink eye, but did nothing to find out what it is. This is becoming a niusance. Should I go to Emerg? I have floaters and latley have been seeing white and dark shadows which seem to block vision, when shadows occur. (I live in Canada, so in order to see an eye dr. I must go to emerg) what say you? thank you very much in advance for your help; Regards, Alexandra-Canada55 (my dad and mom and brother had this very often, again not pink eye) I have SPMS.

Although this effecting your vision.....have you had your kidneys checked out? Strangely enough the bloodshot eyes can be connected to kidney disease. It's one of those odd connections,like having an extra long lasting chest congestion after a cold can also be a sign of kidney problems. Worth looking into.
