Sorry to know about the injury, Brittany. Yes, looks like a bruise which will subside gradually over the next 5-6 days. Keep applying cool compresses till then. Chances are that the bruise might change color from red to purple to green before it disappears. If it is hurting a lot then you can take an analgesic to relieve the pain. Injury to the eye with a remote would not have caused any kind of internal brain injury, so I guess there is no need to worry in that regard. Take rest and catch up with some good sleep and you should feel better.

Regards
