You didn't say what your CD4 count is,but if it's low you could get something called CMV retinitas.Get checked by an eye doctor and be sure to tell him/her that you are HIV+.It could be anything from a cold or allergies to the CMV,but get it checked because it's not worth the risk of losing your vision.
Good luck
Terry

You mentioned mucous. Do you have wheezing? I haven't noticed any redness in the eyes but I definitely have wheezing.
