It sounds like she has bilateral subconjunctival hemorrhage. This is basically bruising of the eye associated with an extreme valsalva action. Valsalva is any action where a person strains very hard such as lifting a heavy weight, vomiting, holding your breath while trying to exhale forcefully. Just like any bruise it will take probably a couple of weeks for the body to reabsorb the blood. As long as her vision is clear she should be fine.
Me. I am an optometric physician.
I am no expert but there may be two answers.
1. broken blood vessels from coughing so hard
2. a different cause and you need to take her to the doctor ASAP!
a mate of mind had that and he was told by his doctor that it was to do with arthritis...best to visit your doctor l guess
Um, take her to a doctor?
