Could Redness In Eye Occur Due To Bleeding In Brain In Patients With Previous Stroke?

My mother is approximately 6 years post-stoke (leaving left-sided weakness) and had a very bad fall on her face, cutting an area above her left eye. CT scan of her head was negative. Three days after the fall, her left eye has turned red (the whites of it). Could this be indicative of a bleed in her brain?

As per your explanation here I believe it can not be possible that due to previous attack of stroke now somebody will have redness in eye. But if recent fall or injury to head covering the eye side if happens the bleeding some times use to be very minor and so that it gives result after some days like one or two. I suggest to check it with eye doctor and if needed do take mri also so that any further damage in side can be taken care by early medical precautions.
Hope you got the idea. Take care.
