Is red eye caused by the amount of weed you smoke, or the quality of the weed (If you smoke less because the weed is high quality, would you still get as bad red eye as when you smoke more, but the quality is less)? Thanks for the help everyone.
I've always thought that it was caused by the smoke getting in your eyes, but someone said something about blood vessels dialating. Usually I just try to blow the smoke clear away from my face and I rarely get red eyes.
when you get stoned, the muscles around your veisn and arteries relax, and so they expand, and make your eyes go red. your blood rate goes up and balances it out though, and thats why we dont get dangerous drops in blood pressure
That's pretty cool. If you think about it, although your heart rate is increased, your blood pressure is even because of the dilation. So all this means is that the body is getting more blood than normal, but not in an unsafe, high blood pressure way. The added amounts of oxygen and nutrients, and increased waste removal via this increased blood flow, must have some potentially important effects on the body. With what you said, bill, about the inhibition of synapses being stopped by THC, add to that increased blood flow to the brain, and damn...no wonder stoners have all those aweseme thoughts.
yeh, this is anotehr reason why exersice is good too, you have the potential for more energy. however, you burn off your more enrgy quicker. ive found sprinting can be awesome when im sonted because its like ive got this extra energy. lots of people say that you dont actually run fast, it jsut feels like you do. there is an element of that. but theres also the element where i get stoned and run at equal pace with a representitive school sprinter sorry i dont rememebr why its relevant, so ill stop
I always thought it was because THC is so sticky and thick that when it goes through the tiny capillaries of your eyes it makes them swell, but stonerbill is prolly right
