Hello, my rabbit has been suffering with conjuctivites recently but I noticed her eyeball has gone red not fully just near the bottom of her eye. I was wondering what this would be? And if you could help me

It sounds as Louise is suffering from an eye infection, it is relatively common in rabbits. you will need to take her to the vet the first chance you get, the vet will check the eyes, if it is indeed a simple eye infection your vet will prescribe an antibiotic eye drops that will probably solve the problem in no time.
