you probably have a tiny burst capillary in your eye. it will look like that.
it's very normal and common. it will go away on it's own but may take a bit of time for the blood to get reabsorbed.

ps...if you have pain or any vision problems see your dr.

Nurse Nancy beat me to it, as that was exactly what I was going to say.

If the whole eye was red, then conjuctivitis would be more likely, but burst vessels are common here and usually harmless.

Is the red patch IN your eye, or is it on the lid part of your eye?

Serves you right for sitting in front of this here computer and staring at it and wait, not wearing your glasses either?



Hope it clears up soon.

Get some fresh air!

Default Red eye

If it continues or comes and goes....then episcleritis may be the culprit. Not much you can do about it. I used to get it all the time and it would look like a diffused ,patchy redness. It would be on one side of the eye then go away and show up on the other side of the eye.... This went on for 7 years.

If your issue doesn't go away....or does and comes back then see a doc.
