Is Red Blotch On The Side Of Eyeball Causing Blurry Vision Concerning?

I have a red blotch on the side of one of my eyeballs, it started out small and painless, but now the red spot takes up most of the side of my eye and my eye feels lots of presure and i'm starting to experience some fuzzyness in my vision in that eye. I have not been sick or had any trauma to my eye. I ignored it at first but it has been there well over a month and has not improved on gotten worse. Do you think I should see a doctor? Or will this go away on its own?

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having a red blotch on the eye. This indicates a spot of subconjunctival hemorrhage. This should resolve by 1-2 weeks and it will not cause blurring of vision.
Hence inflammatory conditions of the eye like uveitis and scleritis need to be considered.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.

Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
