Hello
It seems from the history that you are having trigeminal neuralgia and you are having bruise near the eye.
Trigeminal neuralgia usually leads to burning sensation and pain and this will not lead to bruise. The bruise can be because of injury or infections and requires treatment by antibiotics.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
