What Causes To Wake Up With Bruised Eyelid?

I have had several times in the past two months waking up to a bruised eyelid
One was very large and the other three times the size of a quarter
I am not taking any blood thinners or pain medicines
I am a 47 year old man
I have not struck my eyelid on anything and I don't make a habit of ever rubbing my eyes.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having problem of recurrent bruise of the eyelid.
It is because of collection of blood in the layers of skin. The common causes for bruise of eyelids are injuries, bleeding and clotting diseases. systemic diseases like diabetes, drugs...
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for evaluation to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.
