Detailed Answer:
Hi xxxxxxxxxxxx,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.
As the clinical history is not suggestive of any visual deficit or neurological deficit,it does not appear to be a major cause of concern.
Your brother can take some non steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines like naproxen to reduce pain and swelling.This swelling is likely to resolve soon.
Please follow-up if the swelling persists like that for more than 48 hours.
If you have any further questions for now,I shall be glad to have you in follow-up.
