A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely a bruise: By your history, you likely have a bruise of the white part of your eye, which is actually a thin semitransparent membrane with blood vessels surrounding your eyeball. It's elastic so that while rubbing your eyelids the delicate blood vessels may break and cause a hemorrhage (bruise) which appears bright red. This is usually benign & resolves in 1-2 weeks.
