How bad is it when eye vein ruptures?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not at all: This is a common condition called sunconjunctival hemorhorage bit funky) and will go away on its own.

Recently I have noticed 3 more noticeable veins in my right eye (far left, towards nose, I have to look the right direction to notice them). The air quality where I live has also been bad recently. Is this anything to worry about or just stress?
