Pediatric Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi, welcome to healthcare magic. After injury, the blackness and oedema around the eye is due to a local bruise which resolves by its own. But, if you see that the eyeball is becoming small and it is becoming dry, you should take your child to an opthalmologist as soon as possible to rule out any degenerative changes as well as sympathetic ophthalmitis.
