Is It Normal To Have Pain In Eye After Being Hit?
Last night I got hit in the face, immediately my vision went fuzzy and I felt pain behind one eye. Today behind that same eye it hurts when I turn my eye and even when I open it all the way. Is this a normal occurrence after being hit or could there be something more serious wrong?

Hello
It seems from the history that you had a eye injury and following it you are having eye pain. Since the eye is paining on turning the eye and even on opening the eye, there can be corneal injury in the form of corneal abrasion.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and artificial tears eye drops.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
