Hemorrhage: What you describe is very common, a blood vessel in the white part of your eye bore open and hemorrhaged. This is usually do to rubbing or bumping the eye. Sometimes due to high blood pressure. It looks horrendous but no pain. It will resolve by itself in 2 weeks.

Hemorrhage: Sounds like a sub-conjunctival hemorrhage. As long as the vision is unchanged and there is no pain, everything should be fine. 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. Could be episcleritis, use artificial tears.
