Baby: We need more information or a pic to give more advice. Possibly a subconjunctival hemorrhage which can happen from straining to go to the bathroom to coughing bad. Those go away on its own and get reabsorbed.

Blood in the right eye in my 3 month baby. Help, what to do, advises. Thanks!

Blood: Is there actually blood dripping from the eye (or eyelid area) or does it looked like a "popped" blood vessel on the white of the eye? Is this new? If new, could be trauma. Any blood dripping from an eye is an emergency unless a simple cut on skin (like scratch). As a pediatrician, this is something that should be addressed ASAP, since trauma is not common in this age group.
