subconjunctival hemorrhage

Read the definition below

A subconjunctival hemorrhage (or subconjunctival haemorrhage) also known as hyposphagma, is bleeding underneath the conjunctiva. The conjunctiva contains many small, fragile blood vessels that are easily ruptured or broken. When this happens, blood leaks into the space between the conjunctiva and sclera.

Whereas a bruise typically appears black or blue underneath the skin, a subconjunctival hemorrhage initially appears bright red underneath the transparent conjunctiva. Later the hemorrhage may spread and become green or yellow, like a bruise. Usually this disappears within 2 weeks.[1]

Although its appearance may be alarming, a subconjunctival hemorrhage is generally a painless and harmless condition; however, it may be associated with high blood pressure, trauma to the eye, or a base of skull fracture if there is no posterior border of the hemorrhage visible.


So I have been joking that If I wink at a female vampire is it love at first site.

I almost made it one year without a need to visit the PC Doctor the last time was in November to get Rabies shots after Bread's death.

At first it was very scary thought to have a bleeding eye. But after visiting the PC doc then the local eye doctor and the same conclusion. All worries were put aside.
