Why is my left eye so bloodshot?

Answer 1

If the eyes are yellow (I'm assuming the whites of the eyes have gone yellow) then there could have be a problem with the liver. Yellowing of the eyes, and the skin in severe cases, occurs when you have jaundice, hepatitis or if your common bile duct is being obstructed in some way - by gall stones or even a growth, which may or may not be cancerous.

However the only match for both yellow and bloodshot eyes is yellow fever, according to http://wrongdiagnosis.com/y/yellow_fever/intro.htm#excerpts.

Yellow fever is an acute infectious disease primarily of the tropics, caused by a virus

and transmitted to man by mosquitoes of the genera Aedes and

Haemagogus.

Of course, a raging alcoholic may have extreme liver damage which would cause yellowing of the eyes, and the eyes would be bloodshot too.

My eye colour is light brown, i could change it to black. What you need to do is rub your hands together until it gets warm then cover your eyes with your hands and keep your eyes shut and leave your hands on your eyes for one minute and then your eye will turn black.

The most common cause of red eyes is dry eyes. This is usually accompanied by a sensation of burning. If so, the first line of treatment is over-the-counter artificial tears. (stay away from any redness relievers ie-Visine as it make the problem worse over time) Certain illegall narcotic drugs can also cause ocular redness.

If it is actual blood on the eye, this can be caused by a ruptured blood vessel and is usually from lifting something very heavy, coughing, or sneezing. This condition is called a subconjunctival hemorrhage and will resolve on its own within 2-4 weeks.

A comprehensive medical eye exam is always the best way to determine the actual cause and best form of treatment.
