In a lot of ways, red evil eyes seem preordained to coexist with another evil eye.
For instance, wearing the red evil eye and a faded blue evil eye would give you the courage and enthusiasm needed to tackle the task at hand, with the general protections that light blue evil eyes have to offer.

What is an Evil Eye Curse?
An evil eye curse is something that is directed at you and no one else. It’s the result of someone giving you an evil-eyed glare. According to the ancient Greeks, such a stare was in itself a curse.
The level of malevolence, hatred, and rage implicit in such a glare is the same as a transfer of that hatred towards you. According to Plutarch, an evil eye glare is enough to curse another human being and the red evil eye serves as a protective mechanism against such hatred.
The curse of the evil eye is said to have originated from the oldest parts of Greek religions, however, it probably went beyond even that. It’s not as if the Greeks were the first to ever experience an evil-eyed stare before. The spiritual aspect of the evil-eyed curse extended well beyond the Greek empire, thanks to Alexander the Great.
It also extended well into the time of the Romans and beyond even that. It always maintained a spiritual aspect and it still does today.
