  As you always have extremely red eyes in the morning, you should go to see a doctor immediately to figure out the exact cause of your red eyes. Red eyes can be caused by many factors. Only when you find out the exact reason can you deal with them pertinently. The doctor will prescrible some eye drops to help relieve from the symptoms of red eyes. I won't suggest you get eye drops from the over the counter by yourself. It is safe to consult a doctor.
