I gotta go to the doctor tomorrow
The left side of my left eye has been bloodshot for over a month. I've tried eye drops. They make it go away for a little while but it comes back. It doesn't hurt or itch and doesn't affect my vision. I don't know what the problem could be. I've looked on the internet and the sources on here say it's nothing to worry about if there is no discomfort, but it looks really bad. The left side of that eye is just a mass of red. Oh, and yes, I'm definitely going to the doctor tomorrow.

2. Yeah, that's the weird part
There is no discomfort. Usually when my eyes are bloodshot they feel dry and itchy.

4. Jeez
Sounds like subconjunctival hemorrhage, basically a broken blood vessel in the eye. A month is a long time though, so definitely have it checked out. Let the doctor know what kind of drops you've been putting in it too.
