    Default Blood in Eye

    This is a weird one...

    I woke up this morning and when I was in the bathroom, I looked in the mirror and saw that one half of my eye was like covered in blood just under the surface.. All the white part on the outside side of my eye was like completley red.. Not like bloodshot red, but like a flow of blood stuck in between the white eye, and the thin membrane over your eye protecting it. I immediately stressed out because it looked a bit full on, and i've had monster headaches for the last few days, so I thought I had some tumor or something that had popped (I have a good imagination)...

    I looked it up on the net immediately and it says that it's nothing bad.. It can happen if your eye rubs on your pillow or you poke it or something.. It can also happen from heavy lifting, high blood pressure etc... It said to see a doctor mainly because it could be a symptom of something bad, but it in itself isn't a bad thing... It's a bit annoying because it also says that it can stay around for a week or 2, and i'm going to be freaking people out when they see half my eye is completely red. I'm trying to think of some cool or freaky story to explain it... The final crappy part is that some people get left with a crappy brown stain on the white of their eye which I don't i'll be a fan of...

    Anyway, any of you guys ever had this?? Supposedly it's kind of common...

    I was going to take a photo to show, but it's seriously grose

    That's awful. I never heard of such thing before. I was thinking you are hemophilia for a minute there. But no, coz they bleed through their nose.

    Your story reminded me of Steve-O in "Jackass 2". When he stuck a leech in his eye. His eyeball was all red and bleeding a bit.

    I would ask proffesional (doctor) advice right away if I were you to prevent it from happening again.

    Don't worry mate, I've heard this often enough.

    It's a blood clot just under the surface of your eye usually caused by impacvt on the eyes surface, I've seen it a fair bit.
    On the other hand it could be a syptom of a non-functioning kidney, but thats highly doubtful

    My powerlifting friend had it happen after a comp once. It was sick to gaze upon.

    I am not sure how long it took to clear but the next time I saw him it was fine.

    Thanks man.. Yeah i'm going to go to the doctor sometime this weekend because i've had an extra ordinarly bad headache over the last couple of days which made me even have to have a day off work.. So if they are related, it could mean that their is excess blood pressure in my head/brain which can cause strokes and things like that.. I'm pretty convinced it's nothing serious but no one ever got into trouble by being safe rather than sorry..
    I thought that maybe some people have had this due to boxing..

    That's sick about the leech on the eye! that's just stupid and crazy!

    Actually, i'm a little worried about going to sleep again tonight incase the same thing happens that happened last night... I guess it will be good to have a doctor tell me exactly what it might be and if it's okay... I hate all the doctors in my area though! They are all indian reject doctors that come here because we have a shortage of doctors and they can pretty much get work straight away with little credentials or reputation.. They are also very hard to understand or communicate with... I might go out of town for this one to get a decent opinion..

    UPDATE :

    I woke up this morning and my eye hasn't gotten any worse.. It's now 5pm, and it's actually started to get a little better I think.. The blood has actually spread out a little bit and from far back it looks a little worse because more of my eye looks red, but it's thinning out and in some places the white is starting to show through and going a little more pinky...
    If I didn't see it in the mirror, I wouldn't have even known about it as it doesn't feel any different.
    So I think it should be fine now and hopefully gone in a few days to a week
