Why is there bloodshot on one side of the white of my eye?

Everyone knows that eyes are an important part of our body and we should take good care of our eyes in daily life. However, people nowadays need to face computers or some electronic products for a long time in life and work, which often leads to dry eyes, fatigue and other uncomfortable phenomena. If you get angry, some red bloodshot eyes will appear. At this time, you must pay attention to eye care.

What's wrong with bloodshot eyes?

First of all, we should know that our eyes are usually white because there are tiny capillaries in the eyes, which are usually invisible. That is to say, there are bloodshot in the eyes. Because there are blood vessels in the eyes, when we don’t sleep well, the blood vessels become congested, and the bloodshot will be more serious than usual. Of course, some people are born with thicker eye blood vessels than others. When our eyes are over-tired or infected, blood vessels may rupture and cause retinal bleeding.
