What Causes Black Spot On Top Of Eye After An Eye Injury?
Hi! Two nights ago - wind picked up and a small tree branch hit me right in the right eye. It watered for 2 hours and I saw a black spot or shadow in the top of my eye. It has gotten better but is still there when I am in the dark. Any ideas or should I seek any treatment? Thanks!

Hi
Common cause of black spot after an injury is a condition called Haematoma( collection of blood under neath the skin of affected area)
Generally this kind of heamatoma will get relieved in a week's time
Just apply cold compression 2-3 times daily and the inflammation/swelling or discoloration will come down
In case if it does not get relieved in a week time, please contact HCM(Health Care Magic)
Wish You Good Health
