Question: I m 23 years old female..Day before yesterday in the evening i slipped and fell at home and hurt my head with the floor tiles , the point of impact was just next to my left eye. i called a doctor immediately and applied ice pack. i had blurred vision for a while and had quite big swelling in the eye area and towards the left side of my forehead. I took combiflam immediately and have been taking chymoral forte 4 tablets a day as given by the doctor then till today. the swelling has reduced considerably . i got skull xray done which was normal. i had blurred vision for 5 minutes after i got hurt but no vomiting or nausea. but still i got brain CT scan done for precaution yesterday evening and everything is normal in the report just that it says scalp swelling seen in the left supraorbital region which i think is because the wound was swollen till yest. i didnt have any bleeding. now the swelling has subsided a lot.. its still there though but my left eye has become completely dark purplish black in color. i m worried about how long it will take for my eye to become its normal appearance again , my wedding is scheduled to take place in XXXXXXX I phoned my doctor today and he told me that it may take upto 1 year for the black purple marks to go away. but i read on the internet it heals in 2 weeks generally. I have been taking all precautions. applying ice pack and moist heat from today onwards too. the physician advised me to apply melted boroline to my eye . i would like to know how long will it take for this blackness to go away and my eye to look absolutely normal again..

Thank you for the answer doctor .
