A member asked:

The corner of my eye is all red , but it looks like it's just a lot of little veins, and it doesn't hurt, feels clumpy though why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Red eye: Corner of eye blood vessel are normal. If they are rubbed at it can irritate the vessels and they become more prominent. If you have allergies or you get something in your eye they eye gets watery and tries to flush itself out. If your discharge is yellow, green or very watery have your doctor check it.
