Frequent Burst Blood Vessels in Eye

2 replies

Anyone else experience frequent burst blood vessels in eye (white of the eye).

If so wondering how often and the cause if known?

I don’t have high BP or diabetes, not on any meds, no blood clotting issues so wondering what the cause may be - feeling rather anxious about it all.

Thanks
Samila

Hi, how often are you getting them.
are you lifting heavy weights, or vomiting a lot?
have you had any cavitations recently or any kind of treatment.
get dr to check cholesterol level, it might be worth too buying a BP monitor. You may be getting spikes in BP.

Have you had a full eye exam recently? There are a couple of very rare things it could be. If it is due to a vascular problem, if will show at the back of the eye as well.

I have been getting them every 6 months. Cholesterol was checked and that was fine.

I have booked in for a full eye exam.

thanks
