MM Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 sounds i little over dramatic i know. Ive had a stressfull few weeks, and as a result my blood pressure is throught the roof. Looked in the mirror this morning, and some blood vessels in my eye had burst, leaving me looking like id had a right hook from MC. I know i should get it looked at, but is it worth bothering the Doc about something so trivial? Anybody else ever have this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr W Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 That must be some stressful week you've had. STOP! Have a weekend off and chill. Don't know about your eyes as I'm not a doctor but I'd probably see how they are next week and decide then (or make an appointment now and cancel if you don't need it).

artschool Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 That must be some stressful week you've had. its not the blood vessel in your eye thats the problem, its the underlying cause like high blood pressure. sounds like you do need to take it a bit easier.

digger Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 I had one a couple of weeks ago, its quite common by all accounts. I went to the doc and was assured unless its a recurring problem its not to be worried about unduly. Mine was put down to stress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 i've had the same thing happen, got checked out - high blood pressure. it's not serious providing the blood is only in the white area (sclera), but if there's blood in the pupil/iris there could be something more serious. go get checked out.

Spaniel Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 i had the same in my eye the other month, but i think it caused by something going into my eye etc, but it didnt look good for a good 3 weeks, went red then slowly died down in colour....not sure about stress but i do get alot of pressure on me in work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonD Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Get it checked out mate! They don't call hypertention the silent killer for nothing, it may not be high blood pressure but worth having it checked just in case as it's easily manageable. ATB, Jon.
