I have a black eye and my eyeball is red is that okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Expected: It is common when there is a bruise around the eye for the blood to dissect onto the eyeball itself. This will make the eye look blood red. It may be unsightly but it is completely harmless to the eye or vision.
