There are two types of hematuria; microscopic or gross hematuria. Microscopic hematuria means that the blood can only be seen with a microscope. Gross hematuria means the urine appears red or the color of tea or cola to the naked eye.

Gross hematuria is when a person can see the blood in his or her urine, and microscopic hematuria is when a person cannot see the blood in his or her urine, yet a health care professional can see it under a microscope.
