What Causes Blurred Vision After An Injury On Forehead?

Hi, an hour and a half ago, my three year old hit me on the left side of my forehead with her toy stethoscope. There s a little goose egg , sensitive to touch, feels a bit hot (perhaps from the ice pack?) but my vision is a bit blurry. Should I be concerned or think about seeing a doctor?
