Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems like your uncle is probably having subconnunctival hemorrhage following cataract surgery.
This will resolve by 1-2 weeks as the blood gets absorbed slowly.
However consult your doctor once for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
