A member asked:

I have blood sitting in eye from a black eye! how do i treat?!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sub conj hemorrhage: A sub conjunctival hemorrhage is basically a bruise of the surface of the eye. This blood will typically last for up to two weeks after an injury. There is no way to make it go away more quickly.

Good day, I stabbed myself on my eye (eye lid) while cooking about 3 days ago. There was a lot of blood, but I decided to handle it myself. Now my eye has turned black. Should I see a doctor or is the damage permanent or will it go away?
