What should I do if there is bleeding in the eye?

The management of eye hemorrhage depends on the specific circumstances. Below are some recommendations: 1. Mild bleeding: If there is only slight redness or small blood spots, special treatment is usually not required, as these may resolve spontaneously. Within the first 48 hours after onset, local cold compresses can be applied to constrict blood vessels and reduce bleeding. After 48 hours, warm compresses may be used instead to promote ocular blood circulation and facilitate absorption of the blood clot. 2. Moderate bleeding: If symptoms such as dry eyes or foreign body sensation are present, artificial tears (e.g., sodium hyaluronate eye drops) or oral vitamin C may be used to help alleviate discomfort. 3. Severe bleeding: In serious cases, prompt medical attention is necessary, and surgical intervention may be required. For instance, if there is significant bleeding in the retina, a vitrectomy might be performed to remove accumulated blood. 4. Medication: For hemorrhage caused by inflammation, antibiotic eye drops may be prescribed. If the bleeding is related to medication use, consult a doctor to determine whether the medication should be discontinued.
