Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.
I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
I reviewed history and photo attached with the question.
This shows subconjunctival hemorrhage.
Since vision is not involved no need to worry.
This will resolve over 1-3 weeks slowly as the blood gets absorbed.
You can use cold compression and vitamin C tablet to hasten the recovery. Other than this there is no other treatment for bruise.
Hence no need to worry if you are not having vision problems and pain.
Hope the information is helpful to you.
Thank you
