How To Treat Eye Redness Caused Due To Injury?

A few minutes before i poked my brother in the eye. his eye was bright red, and when you pull the bottom of his eyes down you can see this clear thing. I dont really know what that is, but he washed his face and eyes with cold water. We are putting ice on his eyes and it is now getting better. Can you tell me what the clear thing is and how long it is going to last before it goes away completely.

Hello,
This is a case of sub conjuctival hemorrhage. This is a minor problem which subsides on its own.
Since u have said its resolving you dont have to worry about it.
Lubricating eye drops like refresh tears can be used for soothing effect.
