I woke up this morning w/a very red eye. My hub says I broke a blood vessel but it looks like it's getting worse. I feel ok but have a bit of pressure in my head. What causes a blood vessel to break in your eye? TY....need to know....♥

  1. The number one cause is:  no apparent reason.  Of course, if you rubbed it in your sleep, coughed or sneezed heavily, vomited, picked up something heavy...anything that might put pressure on the eyes, you can break a vessel.  If there's no pain or vision loss, just put a cool compress on it twice a day and used preservative free artificial tears from the drugstore 3 or 4 times a day.  It should resolve within 7 to 10 days.  If there's pain or vision loss, go to the doctor.  If it happens again, go to the doctor.  There could be a more serious underlying problem...


  2. I am sure there are a few different explanations out there for these symptoms. However I would suggest going to see an eye care professional if this persists especially if you feel pressure in your head.

    Maybe it is the beginning of pink eye. Take a look at the following link for more info.
