It can be subconjunctival haemorrhage.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.
I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that your father is having a ruptured blood vessel in the eye.
This can be subconjunctival haemorrhage.
If there is no pain and blurred vision, it confirms the diagnosis.
This will resolve over 3-4weeks and no treatment is required.
However this requires evaluation to look for underlying causes like diabetes, hypertension...
If possible do send me a photo of the eye so that I can confirm the diagnosis and advice you accordingly.
Hope this information is helpful to you.
Thank you
With regards
