What Causes Reddish Bruise On Side Of Right Eye And On Scalp?

Just as we were settling in for the night, my wife showed me a reddish bruise on the right side of right eye between the lids. Two days ago she had slipped in the garden and bruised the right side of her scalp but not anywhere near the eye socket. Thoughts? I am at YYYY@YYYY . Thank you, Paul

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
It seems that there might be having sub conjunctival hemorrhage producing red eye.
As there is h/o bruise on right side forehead or scalp, there might be having blood gravitated down in the sclera.
Nothing to worry, apply ice pack on eye for few days.
Redness will disappear after few days.
Ok and take care.
