Probably not: A severe blow to the head may rarely cause a retinal tear, leading to a possible retinal detachment.  The likelihood of this happening is very low, unless you have lattice degeneration of the retina or are very nearsighted.  A blow to the eye directly, of course, can cause an eye injury with resulting loss of vision.

Ecchymosis: If the marks are in fact due to constant pressure from the glasses, you will need to consider changing your glasses, using contacts or giving your skin as much rest as possible and changing the rest position of the glasses often.
