63 Years Old. Noticed Very Dark Purple Colour From Corner And Middle Of Eye. What Could Be The Cause?
Hello and thanks for the query.
By far the most likely cause in your case seems to be a trauma to your forehead or around your eyes. The trauma may have gone unnoticed.
Your black eye will go away with time but if you are sure that you didn't get any injury on your forehead or around your eyes,then you should consult your doctor to get your blood checked for coagulation defects.
In coagulation defects there may be spontaneous bleeding,like you had.
There is no treatment to be given now as it will go away of it's own.
I hope to have answered your query however you may revert to me for any other query.
Best of luck.
Thanks
