Help I need advice, my eyes are bleeding (photo included)?
I got in a scrap last week and I caught a punch around my eye. At first my eye was a little bit red in the far corner, and then it just started dancing across my eye. I woke up this morning and it wasn't getting any better (after 4 days), Its not sensitive to light, and I have no vision problems.
it looks like a subconjunctival hemorrhage.Its liek a bruise. Those are pretty normal to have, but since you where hit in the eye I would go to an ophthalmologist to make sure you have no other eye problems. like in the retina or with the eye muscles. The blood spot may appear to get worse on its way of getting better. They usually last a week or two.

I am not a doctor. However, I do work at an eye doctors office and what you have looks to be a broken blood vessel. Bleeds inside the eye, looks really nasty but harmless. sometimes gets worse before it gets better. Think of a bruise under your skin. sometimes it spreads out before it starts to look better. You may experience a "full" or pressure type feeling. Give it a good 2 weeks and you should be good as new.

you just ruptured a blood vessel. And its good to know your vision isn't impared. If you start to see blurred objects, you'll have to get professional help. Be sure to cover your good eye to so you can isolate vision in the bad eye. Compare your vision in both eyes while looking at writing on a piece of paper from different distances.
As far as the ruptured vessel goes, its pretty common. Some people do it when they are sick from coughing too much, guys who strain when they work out will pop a blood vessel, even people who for some reason throw up violently. The blood will dissipate in time. Yours may take a week or two before it shows signs of fading.
Give it time to clear, if your vision gets blurred it could be signs or a ruptured or scratch cornea, even worse, and you could potentially lose your vision in that eye.
Stop fighting, it doesn't get you any where unless you need to physically defend yourself or your family as a last resort.

I would go see a doctor to make sure no permanent damage has been done to your eye. (never know, and its better to be sure)

The picture shows a subconjunctival hemmorhage. This is basically just a bruise of the eye where a blood vessel underneath the clear covering of the eye (conjunctiva -- hence the term SUB (under) conjunctival hemmorhage). Just like any other bruise it should resolve withing 1 to 2 weeks.
What your picture does not show is the internal structures of the eye. Any blow to the eye poweful enough to cause a subconjunctival hemmorhage can also cause damage INSIDE the eye. It is possible, although not probable, that the retina in the area of the subconjunctival bleed could have been damaged and not cause any decrease in vision immediately. So, to be sure, it would be a good idea to go in and have an eye doctor perform a dilated retinal exam to assure that everything is A OK.
