If you had a symptom of you eye' s being pale when you pull them down would they be really pale (like white) or just pinky/red.

Sorry I just need to know.

I think it depends on the degree of your anemia. When I was first diagnosed with anemia my hemoglobin was 6.3 and the tissue under my lower eyelid was very very pale (white). Now, the hemoglobin is 9.9 and there is a definite pink colour to it.

Check with your doctor if you haven't already about any concerns with having anemia.

Hope this helps,
Jackie
