What causes blood spots behind eye?
The medical term is Subconjunctival hemorrhage. The eye has a red spot of blood on the sclera (the white part of the eye). This occurs when there is a rupture of a small blood vessel on the surface of the eye. The area of redness may be fairly large, and its appearance is sometimes alarming. It is vivid red because the sclera is so rich in oxygen. It is not dangerous and generally goes away slowly with no treatment.
