Acute Redness And Red Veins In Right Eye, Dry Eye, On Excedrin

Thanks for your query.
Acute redness and red veins confined to one eye only is usually due to swollen or dilated blood vessels, which cause the surface of the eye to look red, or bloodshot.
Since you do not have any pain or vision problems associated with it, this is not an emergency situation or the one with XXXXXXX consequences.
This redness may result from extremely dry air, sun exposure, dust, foreign body, an allergic reaction, infection, trauma, or severe straining or coughing.
Although this bloody area may appear alarming, it is a fairly common occurrence and is not highly significant.
Such minor hemorrhages do subside on their own in 3 to 6 weeks time and not much treatment is helpful in such cases.
Hope I have answered your query. I will be available if you have any further queries.
Regards
