Are Black Lumps On Eye Due To Busted Blood Vessel?

I have woken up this morning with a swelling under my left eye on the eye socket. The lump is approximately 20-25mm is black. The skin that stretches from the lump to the corner of my eye between the eye and nose is also black. I have had no knock or bumps, is this a burst blood vessel or something else.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some sub-conjunctival hemorrhage giving this problem.
If there is no h/o any injury or bite, raise of blood pressure or taking of any blood thinner medicine might caused this.
Consult your doctor and get blood pressure measured.
discuss about taking any blood thinner medicine.
Meanwhile put antibiotic eye drops 3-4 times a day.
Apply ice pack over the part.
Ok and take care.
