Broken Blood Vessel

2526640?1203351939
My daughter has had a broken blood vessel under her eye for the last 8 months and it does not seem to be going away as the doctor told us it would. In fact it seems redder lately. Is there anything we can do besides expense laser surgery? There was never a trauma or any visual problems. It is just a red spot under her eye, kind of on the lower lid almost on her upper cheek. It spiders out, but it is very small. We never called an ophthalmologist; but my mom told me it was a broken blood vessel because she has had them before. And my daughter’s pediatrician said it should go away in a few months but it hasn't.

I am 11 years old with a red dot under my eye barley above my cheek bone and I had this dot for about a year I searched on the web :what could red dots on a face are and it came up as a broken blood vessel and a way to get it removed is to talk to a dematoligst then get it lasered off but my question is: Is there a age limit on how old I have to be to get it lasered and am i old enough to get it lasered?
