if your vision is normal and there is no pain or redness in the eye then probably there is no injury and no cause for worry.
in case of any symptoms then you should consult an ophthalmologist

Hi,Cathy,
Thanks for query.
Even slight injury in the eye we should not neglect.
We do not know which part of eye is damaged or bruised.
If it damaged cornea it may lead to corneal ulceration and lot of problems.
So it is better to consult ophthalmologist and go gor physical examination.
ok and bye.
