redeye

Late night flight

Redeye refers to several things connected by redness of the eye or appearance.

A redeye flight departs late at night and arrives early morning, leaving passengers with bloodshot eyes from lack of sleep: I took the redeye from LA to New York.

Redeye is also cheap whiskey, coffee added to beer, or the photographic effect that makes eyes glow red in flash pictures.

In fishing, redeye names several species with reddish eyes.
