Hi Beverley,
My eyes were always red upon waking when I was a smoker. I don't remember if my eyes were more red than usual after quitting. Now, my eyes are clearer than ever. It's probably just another withdrawal symptom. If I remember correctly, smoking constricts blood vessels, so now maybe you are seeing more redness since your vessels are not being constricted. It's always best to check with your doctor if you are really concerned.
You're doing great!
