Eye hematoma: People get eye hemtomas lots of times sometimes just from strain but being that you were jumped and have a nose fracture, I would check it out with ophthalmologist to insure you do not have orbital fracture as well, as you may need antibiotics. Have a doctor /urgent care check that there is no CSF fluid leakage from the nose or other facial/skull fractures. Please be checked by OB as well.

Need urgent: Evaluation. Concern with trauma and bleeding in the eye is whether you have corneal abrasion or dislocated lens. Both require urgent intervention to prevent loss of vision
