Lupus and bloodshot eyes

Hey everyone...I'm relatively new to this lupus thing.

Has anyone experienced bloodshot eyes as part of their symptoms? My 16-year-old thought that I was high the other day because they were so bloodshot.

  1. Hi, !

    Vision issues and various eye issues can be related to Lupus or the medications used to treat Lupus symptoms. You can read more about it here -- https://lupus.net/eyes. Also, just to be safe, we always recommend checking in with your doctor any time you experience a new symptom.

    Best, Erin, Team Member.
