These appeared about a year ago. This is my right eye. I also have a similar condition in the right. The condition in right is not as far in front of the eye as the left, therefore it is harder to see.

It looks as if you might have a burst blood vessel, or a swollen one. You should go talk to a doctor about it, though. I know that there have been cases of small children infected with worms (i don't remember which ones) having lines like that appear in their eyes, and they later went blind.

I'm not sure...It was on a poster in my vet's office a couple of years ago...I don't really remember whether it was one eye or both. You should just go talk to an eye doctor...They'll tell you if something's wrong!
