Question 1

how to cure burst blood capilleries in eye?

Accepted Answer

Bleed: This is a sub-conjunctival hemorrhage.  As long as the vision is unchanged and there is no pain, everything should be fine.  If it is a little irritated, then you can use an artificial tear up to 4 times a day to lubricate. This is due to a blood vessel leaking blood and is usually without cause.  Sometimes straining or blood thinner can cause this. If it continues to happen, follow up with eye md.

Question 2

describe the features of blood in eye.?

Accepted Answer

Blood inside the eye: Bleeding can occur from trauma, vascular events and certain hereditary illnesses that affect the eyes.  Free blood in the eye drops the vision and bleeding can also occur in the substance of the retina with variable effect on the vision (e.g. In diabetes).  Any bleeding in the eye needs immediate evaluation by your ophthalmolgist.

Question 3

blisters/cysts and blood in eye, why?

Accepted Answer

both eyes or one?: If both eyes spontaneously develop this problem it could suggest an underlying and serious systemic condition.  Some viruses are known to cause a hemorrhagic conjunctivitis also.  Blisters suggest an immunologic reaction as can be seen in steven's johnson syndrome.  I would recommend seeing a doctor immediately!

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Question 6

what can cause a tiny speck of blood in eye?

Accepted Answer

Blood in the eye: Blood in the eye may mean different problems. Externally on eyeball surface ( white part) may be a small bruise generally self limited and benign and the result of rubbing the eyelids. Internal blood (inside the eyeball) is almost always abnormal.

Question 7

what causes blood in eye and how common is it?

Accepted Answer

Where?: If you mean on the white part and there is little or no pain, yes, that  is very common.  It is no more serious than a bruise to your thigh and will go away without any overt treatment.  It is more common in those who need blood thinners--but do not stop them.  The most common cause is stifling a sneeze--let her rip.  Don't "play" with it.  Don't hold your breath with exertion of any kind.

Too vague: Subconj blood has no symptoms. Vitreous in blood can cause profound vision loss.

Question 10

maybe i worry too much, but i want to know how blood in eye will affect my child's overall health.?

Accepted Answer

Blood in the eye: Blood in the eye can mean several things.  If the eye has recently suffered trauma, a hyphema may result-- this needs to be followed carefully for a week or more, since it may result in increased pressure in the eye or decreased vision.  Blood on the surface of the eye is likely a subconj heme-- this will resolve in 2-4 weeks by itself.  Blood in the retina needs follow-up locally.
