Hello
It seems from the history that hot oil has went into your eye and this might would have caused burns involving the cornea and conjunctiva. The reason for decreased vision is because of corneal injury. This requires treatment by antibiotic eye drops and oral antiinflammatory drugs.
Since cornea is probably injured this requires treatment under ophthalmologist supervision.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
