Hello
It seems from the history that you had a injury following which you are having bruiseand black eye.
This is bbecause of collection of blood in the layers of skin of eyelid ad a result of injury.
This will resolve itself and no treatment is required.
Applying cold compression provides symptomatic relief.
But if there are visual impairment or tenderness at the site of injury it requires evaluation to rule out eye injury or injury yo the orbital bone respectively.
Thank you
