Hello
It seems from the history that you had a fall following which you are having bruise on the eye brow.
The treatment is by use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. If it has resulted in lacerated injury it requires suturing of the wound,otherwise use of antibiotic eye ointments and anti-inflammatory drugs is sufficient and it will be cured by 2-3 weeks.
Thank you
