Any exertion that would cause you to be red in the face.  Somethimes the blood vessels are weak and they can just snap.  It is rarely anything to worry about, but you should see a doctor just in case.

Brain haemorrhage is bleeding on the brain.\n\nThis is one of the causes of a stroke. About 80% of strokes are caused by a blood clot rather than bleeding.\n\nA common cause of brain bleeding is a weak or thin spot on a brain blood vessel.These weak spots stretch out and can rupture. \n\nBrain vessels that have become brittle because of hardening (because of high blood pressure) can also break open. \n\nAnother cause of brain haemorrhage is the presence of a tangle of blood vessels within the brain that have thin walls and that can burst easily.\n\nBrain haemorrhage can also happen due to a blow on the head and older persons or those with brittle arteries are more likely to get a brain bleed from minor bumps.\n\nSymptoms due to brain haemorrhage can start quickly and without warning (most cases) or slowly.\n\nWhen any of these symptoms occur, a brain haemorrhage could be present and emergency medical attention is needed:\n\nNumbness or weakness of the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body. \n\nConfusion, trouble talking, or understanding speech. \n\nSudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes. \n\nSudden trouble walking, dizziness, or loss of balance or coordination. \n\nSudden severe headache with no known cause

Your vision in that eye might be getting weak. Mostly though, being too tired, or doing too much close work causes it. Try taking a break from reading, computer work, knitting, whatever....just take a break about every half hour or so to let your eyes rest. Be sure to get plenty of sleep too, that's the body's natural repairitive phase.

Glaucoma\n\nIt's due to increased fluid (aqueous humor) that isn't being removed by the ciliary processes of the eye.\nIt can lead to blindness, due to progressive damage of the optic nerve.\nThere are drops to treat it.\nThey do that test at the opthalmologist where they blow the puff of air in your eye to test for increased pressure.

the swelling could be caused by any number of medical conditions, but the most common causes are either pinkeye(conjuctivitis) or having a sty on your eye. If your eye is red and matted together when you wake up, this could be pinkeye. If this is the case you need to contact your doctor and have it checked out. If it is a sty, there is really not much you can do, except put warm compresses on it.

Rupture organs, ulcers.\n\nGo to the ER now.  It's a very serious thing to be bleeding internally.  It's worth it to go to the ER, or an Urgent Care clinic, or any other clinic right now.

Henoch-Schönlein purpura (say "hen-awk shern-line purr-purr-ah") causes the blood vessels in your skin to get inflamed (irritated and swollen). This inflammation is called vasculitis. It can also affect blood vessels in the bowel and the kidneys. When the blood vessels in your skin get inflamed, they can bleed, causing a rash that is called purpura. The intestines and the kidneys may also bleed.

trauma = emotional shock which can cause the vessels holding fluid behind the eyes to constrict thereby raising the pressure of the fluid = glaucoma

A bloodshot eye can be very serious unless you got punched. A serious sinus infection is always dangerous. Viral or bacterial attack on the brain is bad news.

No, the inside of the eye has what they call vitreous fluid, which is a thick liquid that protects the eye.  If you were stabbed in the eye, you would not bleed from inside but from the outer layers that have the blood supply but you would most likely lose your sight in that eye.

You could use VISINE eye drops for redness...caused by reading too much, etc.

simple boss... eyes become red because the nerves in the eyes get strained. if u concentrate on a part of the body and strain it ... u can make it become red. look constantly at the same point. that strains ur eyes muscles and the blood pressure increses in the eyes. thus they become red.

Nothing serious I hope. I heard once that when they are new, the blood vessels are so close to the surface of the eye that the slightest touch would cause bleeding? Made sense at the time. That's for brand new babies though. If it continues call the doctor! ASAP.. Congratulations!~:)x
