It depends on the type of hemorrhage. A hemorrhage on the front surface that is visible can be caused by straining or thin blood. If it is recurrent, you should be examined and possibly have blood work done.
A hemorrhage in the back of the eye - on the retina, is more serious an can be caused by a number of diseases (diabetes, high blood pressure, etc).

Do you mean that you can see blood in your eyeball by looking in the mirror? If so, you just broke a small blood vessel in your eye & it will absorb in a few days. No big deal. You probably bent over, coughed or sneezed to cause it.
If you mean that the doctor told you that you are hemorrhaging in the eye, then it is a much bigger deal. Ask your doctor.

I was just walking along in the grocery store and experience pain in my right eye, then I looked in a mirror and saw it appeared to be a broken blood vessel and blood red around my entire eye. Still sore the day after. What would cause this. It is the second time it has happened out of the blue. Is it still nothing to worry about?

Spending too much time on the computer or reading isn't very good either. Anything that causes strain on the eye can cause a broken blood vessel. It will heal on it's own. No need to fret, just give your eyes a rest!

Maybe high blood pressure can cause it. Or maybe strenuous activity. Do you have sort of dark "floaters" in that eye? If so, they go away in a few weeks.
