What Treatment To Be Taken For The Bloodshot And Pain In Eye?

On one of my eyes the corner is bloodshot and there is a pain when my eyelid is pressed against the area. When I flushed my eyes I looked at it. It almost looks like the membrane in the eye is squishy and reacts in ripples when pressed. My other eye seems solid when pressed.

Hello
It looks like you are having sub conjunctival hemorrhage.
Sub conjunctival hemorrhage is because of collection of blood under conjunctiva. It will resolve over 3-4 weeks slowly ad the blood gets absorbed.
The pain can be treated with analgesics.
The cause for sub conjunctival hemorrhage needs to be evaluated and the common causes include injury, infections and systemic diseases like diabetes....
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
