The answer is D subconjunctival hemorrhage

Explanation- the patients eye isn’t completely red and he has no pain in it so it isn’t A or B. A corneal abrasion is just a scratch so redness isn’t normally splotch like. So that rules out the other options, plus a subconjunctival hemorrhage can be caused by a forceful cough or sneeze which the patient is experiencing.
