Q: enlarged vein in eye causes rubbing

Hi, I am new to the forum, and I guess I am here because I am looking for answers.
I have been having problems with the vein in my eye. Over the last two months I can not stand it. The vein in my right eye, towards the corner seems to get enlarged so my eye lid feels it when my eye closes. I can't not think about it, because my eye must be telling my brain, something is not right here.
I want to rub it real bad, but if I do that I am afraid I will cause the vein to burst, which has happened in the past. I have tried to pin point what is causing this to happen and I can't.
I have gone to two eye doctors that bascially told me there is nothing to do about it, try some drops.
But it is getting worse and more often.
Could this be a circulation problem? Like I said it happens under no special circumstances.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you
Marre

Vein in Eye
Hello, I have been searching everywhere and keep coming to "dry eye"...I have the same exact thing in my right eye right now as you describe. A month or two ago is when it first happened. That time it lasted for only a day then I forgot about it. It is back now since Sunday. My eye isn't red, just the vein, so I don't think it is dry eye. Your post was written awhile ago in 2007, just wondering if you have found out anything since then?
