An extremely rare condition where blood or blood-stained fluid is secreted from the eyelids or surrounding tissue.
From Greek 'blepharon' (eyelid) + 'hemati-' (blood) + 'hidrosis' (sweating). This extremely rare medical term combines anatomical location with a bleeding phenomenon, documented only in rare medical literature cases.
Hematohidrosis — bleeding through sweat glands — is so phenomenally rare that most of the cases in medical history are questioned, but when it does occur, it's usually from severe stress, bleeding disorders, or capillary rupture, and when it happens on eyelids it's genuinely alarming for patients.
