What Causes Bruising In The Eyeball?

Recently I have only occasionally woken up with what feels like a bruised eyeball. Left side only. I was wondering if it is because I have fallen asleep on it? The pain disappears during the day. Ide think Nov treatment is best as it does go away. But ide like your advice on the cause and treatment if any.

Hi,
It seems that this might be due to sub-conjunctival hemorrhage producing bruise like eye ball.
This might be due to constant sleeping on that side producing pressure on eye ball.
This can be due to increased blood pressure as well.
Go for measuring blood pressure frequently.
Ok and take care.
