Detailed Answer:
Hello
welcome to Health care magic
I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
It seems from the history that you are having red eye. This may not be related with the blisters in mouth which occur as a result of trauma.
The cause for red eye depends on the associated symptoms.
If you have pain and decrease in vision it indicates inflammation of the eye like uveitis.
If you have irritation of the eye with discharge it indicates conjunctivitis.
If you have do not have any symptoms, only red blood eye resembling blood it indicates collection of blood under the conjunctiva called as subconjunctival hemorrhage.
If possible do send a photo of the affected eye so that I confirm the diagnosis for you and advice you accordingly.
Hope the information is helpful to you.
Thank you

No treatment is required for it.

Hello
Thank you for the follow up question.
Subconjunctival hemorrhage is because of accumulation of blood under the conjunctiva. It is a self limiting condition and it will resolve by 1-2 weeks. No treatment is generally required as it will resolve by itself.
