Hello there,
Swelling and redness of the eyes is due to the soft tissue reaction which should subside with some analgesics if thats all the case. But any injury should not be taken lightly even if vision is alright.Also there is always a possibility of infection post injury. Suggest to consult the ophthalmologist for complete eye check up
Thankyou.
