My boyfriend is blind in one eye (it was cut in half vertically through the iris). when he wakes up, it's completely red, but not like bloodshot, why?

Red eyes: most likely it is due to venous congestion, as his veins must been damaged due to injury. Ophthalmologist ( eye doc) might be able to give explanation after examination.
