Does Blood Spill In The White Of Eye Cause Issues?

Posted on Wed, 22 May 2024

Question: My mother aged 56 had a blood spill in the white of her eye 2 days back which seems to have increased in diameter. Although it has not touched the iris and has only been present on the white side, it seems to have increased in diameter since yesterday. We recently have had her blood work done along with ECG. Nothing was shown to have been significant by our previous doctor and recommended only weightloss and lifestyle changes. She has no pain but only negligible irritation or sensation in her affected eye. She is a heavy user of XXXXXXX phone day and night and also follows a sedentary lifestyle. As far as we know she has not had any injury to her eyes in the recent past as well.

Hence requesting to please suggest.

Hi,
As per your description, it seems like a case of viral conjunctivitis.
Try using carboxymethylcellulose Eye drops and visit ophthalmologist, in case of no improvement.
