red vein in eye

red vein in eye

For the past year I've had a red vein in one of my eyes. Is it normal for a dilated vien to stay inflamed for such a long time? What causes dilation in eye veins? Is there anything I can do to treat a dilated vein? Will the vein ever return to a normal state? The dilation just appeared quickly and was not a result of any trauma sustained by the eye.Thank you for your help.

Some people have prominent veins like the big one that pops up on Clint Eastwoods forehead.

Nevertheless have an Eye MD check your eyes. Find one at www.aao.org

Hello,
did you ever go to the DR. for this? I am experiencing the same thing. It just showed up out of nowhere, I have perfect vision.
