Blood in eye
Today morning as I woke up, I've noticed a portion of my eye covered with blood (looks like inside the eye). Is this emergency? Should I hurry to a doctor?

This is a sub conjunctival haemorrhage and technically on the surface of eye and not inside the eye. It could be due to trauma of some nature. People with hypertension and diabetes also have tendency to get such incidents. You may visit your doctor In a planned visit. Take 1500 mg of Vitamin C daily in the meantime
