Poison ivy is all green. The stem of poison ivy is brown and cylindrical, while blackberry and raspberry stems can be green, can be squared in cross-section, and can have prickles. Raspberries and blackberries are never truly vines; that is, they do not attach to trees to support their stems.
Occasionally, these blood vessels can burst and led to hemorrhage (bleeding) that appears as a red patch on the white of the eye. In the majority of cases, this type of bleeding (called subconjunctival hemorrhage) occurs without a known cause. Subconjunctival hemorrhage can also result from certain medical conditions including trauma, high blood pressure, eye infections, and bleeding disorders. The straining associated with vomiting, coughing, or sneezing can also sometimes lead to subconjunctival hemorrhage. Stress is not a recognized cause of subconjunctival hemorrhage. The good news is, if you had a conjunctival hemorrhage, these are only cosmetically annoying but go away and do not endanger the vision.
Damaged blood vessels due to diabetic retinopathy can cause vision loss and blindness two ways: 1  Fluid leaks into the center of the retina, called the macula. This area of the retina is where central vision takes place. 2  In proliferative retinopathy, new and abnormal blood vessels grow.
