I hit my eye on a handle while in the shower and now my eyelid is drooping down slightly

Posted , 2 users are following.

What do I do? I've seen suggestions like use a cold compress, give it 24 / 48 hrs. I'm starting to get a little worried.

Thank you for any and all help.

    No pictures to be seen. Just keep cold compressing it. You may develop a bruised eyelid but as long as your sight is Ok dont worry too much. If your eyelid continues to droop after a week then do see your doctor.
