### Human:\nhow long do subconjunctival hemmorhages normally last before they clear up?\n\n### Assistant: depending on the extent of the subconjunctival hemorrhage the body will reabsorb this blood relatively fast but it could take a week or more before all of the residual blood has completely gone. it will be bright red at first; turn to a brownish color then tan. and then gone. the time it takes for this to resolve is not unlike a bruise on your skin. it just shows up more evident in the eyes. there is little that you can do to speed up this process.
