Suggest Remedy For Swollen Eyelids With Bruise

My 59 year old husband woke up yesterday with a deep black & purple bruise across his eyelid. He doesn't recall falling or bumping into anything during the night. His eyelid now has some slight swelling. Is this something he should see a Doctor for, if so what type of doctor? He insists he fine.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
First of all tell me wheather he is having Blood Pressure. He might have Itch or some insect bite at night which is not noticed. For swelling nothing to worry much but u shud show to Ophthalmologist or just take some painkiller with antiinflmatory action like Combiflam or sumo two times and wait,swelling will reduce.If swelling increases,u must consult Ophthalmologist.
