Bumped Head On Metal Bar, Blurred Vision, Hurting. Worried?

I was climbing today and I jumped up a ladder and didn t realise there was a square metal bar above my head and I smacked my head on it really hard. I really hurt myself but I didn t bleed . I had slightly blurred vision this afternoon but I didn t link the two and now my head has a dent in it and its hurting where I hit it.. should I be worried?
