Hi,
If you can move your eyes normally without your vision becoming blurred, it is OK. You should however get antibiotics if there is a connection between the fracture and your skin or sinuses.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen, General Surgeon
