I've noticed that my left eye is looking really red, kind of like it's filled with a blood-like fluid, and it's been this way for about 23 days now. I've also been feeling this strain in that eye for the same amount of time. I do have high blood pressure and diabetes, so I'm wondering if those might be connected to what's going on. What could be causing this, and what would the diagnosis likely be?

The symptoms of a half-red left eye with a blood-like fluid, accompanied by strain and underlying conditions of high blood pressure and diabetes, suggest potential causes such as subconjunctival hemorrhage, diabetic retinopathy, or hypertensive retinopathy; immediate consultation with an ophthalmologist is recommended for a comprehensive evaluation,

View allI'm curious about my strabismus since I've had it since childhood. I don't have a lazy eye because both of my eyes have 69 acuity with 4D power. If I decide to get cosmetic surgery for the squint, what are the chances I'll end up with perfectly aligned eyes and no recurrence of the squint for the rest of my life? From what I've read, recurrence seems to happen mainly in people with a lazy eye, but since I'll be using both of my equally efficient eyes together after surgery, does that mean the squint might not come back? Could you guide me on this?
