Half of my dad's eye is red after falling is he ok?

Don't know: Any sort of trauma should be evaluated especially if it causes changes. The red could be subconjunctival bleeding, which in itself is harmless, but he could have other problems in the eye. I"d go see an ophthalmologist for a full dilated exam.

Yesterday, I must have gotten something in my eye when doing a home project. It was likely a piece of wood or a paint chip. I should have been wearing eye protection. Hindsight is 20/20 (OK, bad dad joke). This morning, my upper eyelid is swollen, red, and sensitive to the touch. My vision seems to be fine. At what point would I need to be seen? I have been flushing with eye drops and cold compress. Anything else I should do? eye injury?
