By bleeding, do you mean blood is trapped underneath the conjunctiva, or actually leaking out??? If it is the former, read on...

You could simply have an ecchymosis - bruise, from a burst blood vessel.

The more serious cause could be some damage to your orbit. If you can't see where the the bleeding starts (ie if it seems to be coming from underneath your eyeball) then it could be a serious matter.

Obviously, go get it checked out, and urgently.

You should see a doctor or optometrist to make sure there isn't damage to your eye.

dude go to the ER NOW

Emergency room right away. You do not want to have permanent damage to your eyelid, or orbit or vision. You most likely have a split in the skin at the corner of your eye and may need stitches.

Good luck, I hope everything works out well for you.

ur gonna go blind, dude!

you can
put a cold towel on ur eye and later maybe wash it gently with soap
