Hello
It seems from the history that you are having purple spots on both the eyelids. This indicates ecchymosis of eyelids as a result of collection of blood in the layers of skin of the eyelids.
The commonest cause is injury but it can occur spontaneously in cases of uncontrolled hypertension, bleeding and clotting disorders...
Hence I advice you to undergo evaluation in this regard as injury does not seem to be the cause in you.
Thank you
