What works best for you when eyes are red and painful from allergies?
I have had my eyes turn red and get watery all of my life from allergies, but this is the first time that my eyes have actually been painful. They are redder than usual also. I sure would appreciate any advice. I usually use Visine AC, but this time the drops burned my eyes making the red even worse.

I go to familydoctor.org whenever I have a problem. The link above is specifically for eye problems, check it out. It is a chart that gives you the symptoms and when you find the one that matches your symptoms there are solutions right next to it.
Plus you can use it for future reference.

Run a Hepa air filter at home in the room where you spend most time, together with a humidifier if possible. Keep your windows closed on particularly hot/bad allergy days. Some weather forecasts will let you know the bad days, or you can look up online.
Some allergen fighting and "red-out" claiming eye drops help a little, but they tend to make things worse over the long term, so I never use them.
I prefer using Natural Tears type drops to just keep flushing out allergens from the eyes.
If you get runny nose too, you can try saline spray, or neti-pot saline nasal rinse every day, its super cheap (just salt, water and a mini tea-pot) and really does help improve allergies.
you can also try a generic anti-histamine oral medecine... but they tend to lower your body's immune systems defenses. So its a trade off.

Go to your doctor, and they will probably prescribe some eye drops. It's kind of scary the first time, but it doesn't hurt at all and it will give you really good relief! You might be able to get it without a prescription but I am not sure.
eyedrops definitely worked great for me though :)
