What causes a red dot to appear in the white of the eye?

The appearance of a red dot on the white of the eye may be caused by trauma, foreign body, conjunctivitis and other reasons.
1. Trauma: If the eye is accidentally traumatized, resulting in the rupture of capillaries under the conjunctiva, a red dot on the white of the eye may occur.
2. Foreign body: If there is a reddish foreign body in the eye, there may be a red dot on the white of the eye, accompanied by a foreign body sensation.
3. Conjunctivitis: Conjunctiva is a layer of transparent membrane-like tissue that covers the white part of the eye behind the eyelid. When bacteria, virus or allergies cause conjunctivitis, a red dot may appear on the white of the eye due to inflammation.
When a red dot appears in the white of the eye, it may also be caused by other reasons, you should go to the regular hospital in a timely manner, to clarify the cause of the disease, under the guidance of professional doctors to give targeted treatment.
