Can Makeup Damage Your Eyes?

YOUR COMPLETE GUIDE TO DRY EYES
Alcohol consumption reduces oxygen in your red blood cells, and causes the tiny blood vessels on the surface of the eye (the sclera) to dilate. This results in more blood flowing through them - giving your eyes an inflamed, red appearance. An eye spray or drops may be helpful, as well as some home remedies like placing a cold compress, or a spoon, which creates a drop in temperature on the eye surface, helping restrict the blood vessels and reduce the redness.
After you've had a few drinks you’ll experience blurred vision. This is because alcohol affects your peripheral vision (i.e. seeing objects outside your central vision). The blurry vision from the alcohol is a result of this tunnel vision, together with double vision and slower pupil reaction.
Alcohol consumption causes the tiny blood vessels on the surface of the eye to dilate, giving your eyes an inflamed, bloodshot appearance. Eye sprays and drops may be helpful, as well as some home remedies like placing a cold compress, or a spoon, which creates a drop in temperature on the eye surface, helping restrict the blood vessels and reduce the redness.
Alcohol is a diuretic, causing your body to remove fluids faster and giving you dry eyes. This dehydration extends to your eyes, accelerating the symptoms of dry eye syndrome (itchiness, a burning sensation, blurry vision, watery eyes etc.). Try to replace lost fluid with glasses of water. A rough guide is 1 large glass of water per 2 units of alcohol drunk. Also, remember to remove your contact lenses before going to bed, as they limit the amount of oxygen reaching your cornea - and may lead to long-term conditions like keratitis (inflammation of the cornea). Using an eye spray or eye drops is also recommended to give a boost of moisture.
This is a commonly asked question. It’s a symptom of dry eyes and dry eye disease for some people. The diuretic effects of alcohol cause your body to remove water (through your pee) at a higher rate. This dehydrates your eyes, accelerating the symptoms of dry eye syndrome (which include itchiness, a burning sensation, blurry vision, and for some people, watery eyes).
Alcohol causes your body to dehydrate, which in turn causes your organs (which includes your skin) to 'fight back' by retaining water - which may lead to bags under eyes.
Eyelid twitching is another indicator of (excessive) alcohol consumption. This painless, but annoying eye spasm is also known as myokymia. The twitching sensation should go away within a few days. If it lasts longer than 2 weeks, you should see a doctor. If you find your eyelids twitch on a regular basis, it may be because of stress, lack of sleep, too much caffeine or a vitamin deficiency.
Alcohol use has been linked to an increased risk of Cataracts. The exact mechanism is not yet fully understood:
