Hello
Redness of eye because of mild bleeding is a common condition called as subconjunctival haemorrhage.
The common causes are mild injury , some types of conjunctivitis, systemic diseases like diabetes, hypertension and bleeding disorders.
The treatment is mainly by observation, it will get resolved by 4-6 weeks. You can use antibiotic eye drops for 1 week.
For evaluation of the underlying cause you need to undergo evaluation to rule out the local and systemic diseases. Please do consult your nearby eye doctor for investigations and evaluation.
