Successful treatment of the blepharitis is probably the best way to
reduce redness in your eyes. You could also use artificial tears
regularly (i.e. several times per day, every day), as blepharitis goes
hand-in-hand with dry eye / tear film deficiency. Is there anything in
your environment that may be contributing, e.g. airconditioning, wind,
dust, smoke, etc? Also consider dietary Omega 3 e.g. fish oil, flaxseed,
etc.
Avoid vasoconstrictors (eye drops which promise to make your red eyes
white) as these work in the short term but can make things worse in the
long term.
