Hello.
Welcome to HCM.
This is Dr. Swarnava Dattagupta answering your query.
I understand your concern.
First of all, it would be nice if you could send a picture of your eyeball.
Also I have a few questions.
Are you hypertensive?
Any history of trauma?
Any watering or itching in eye?
Any diminution in vision since the redenning?
Any pain?
At this age, hypertension can be a major cause. Also, trauma is very common in all ages. Acute glaucoma or conjunctivitis have to be ruled out too.
For now,
Get your blood pressure checked and get me known.
Apply local cold compress if history of trauma.

You can also consult an ophthalmologist for further queries.
