How To Treat An Internal Eye Injury Causing Partial Vision Loss?

Was stuck in the eye by blunt tool, now I can only see shadows(Wed). I went to an opthologist(Thurs) who looked at my eye and only said beyond his scope of work and needed to refer me to a sub specialist. It appears from what I have been able to check thru photos of my eye is that that top of the iris is folded down and there also appeared to be a slight cut in my cornea. Since the accident I have only been able to see Light and Shadows(starting Sat). I am very concerned and a little scsared right now not knowing whats going to happen. Can these injuries be repaired and will I regain full sight again in my eye?

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some serious internal and external eye injury due to blunt tool.
This requires proper internal examination for having any retinal or optic nerve injury which can produce serious problem in future if not treated.
You might require through ophthalmoscopic examination to know extent of injury.
Ok and take care.
