Suggest Remedy For Eye Injury

My husband had an eye injury on Tuesday night. I took him to the emergency room on Wednesday morning and the ER doctor concluded that he had a bruised cornea. However, I'm not convinced it ends at that. He put all of his 227 lbs into his eye when he fell. And now when he closes his eyes he gets dizzy and starts to vomit. He has had short term memory loss and keeps telling me he doesn't feel right. Could he have a brain injury as well?

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history. The symptoms of dizziness, memory loss and vomiting indicate concussion injury to the brain. Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination by CT scan to rule out concussion injury and treatment accordingly.

Hence you need to consult your doctor at the earliest without delay. DO write to me for any other queries and I will be happy to help you.

Thank you
With regards
