What are your underlying conditions causing hemorrhage in one or both?

Posted by medquestioner123 @medquestioner123, Apr 7 2:17pm

Have had recurrent subconjunctival hemorrhages in my left eye the past year, then today a hemorrhage in my right but not at the same time. Have seen optometrists and ophthalmologists and my general doctor with bloodwork and tests and everyone says not to worry but this cannot be normal? Anybody experiencing this? Looking for an underlying cause other than high blood pressure or diabetes. Any blood disorders that may be causing this?

After I was diagnosed with GCA my ophthalmologist found that my eye was hemorrhaging. She said it would not affect my vision. I know it is not good. Next visit I went in and was no longer hemorrhaging. Can't possibly be good for our eyes.

I've gotten 3 in the last few weeks. I do have severe dry eyes, and allergies are very bad in our area at this time.
I've had them occasionally in the past, but not for years. I'm concerned, but I've been told they're harmless.

My left eye is affected with wet macular degeneration.
A month ago there was leakage of blood and now at
last weeks exams the Dr. said there was no blood. I will
continue to receive injections every 6 weeks.
