Redness On Side Of Eye, Looks Like Rolling Of Eyes When Blinked. History Of Being Involved In An Accident. Serious?

Hello Doctor,
Please advise ,,my friend was involved in an accident a week ago. His left eye is red on the side. What I have noticed is that when he blinks or closes his eyes,it looks likes its rolling back cause you can see the white part whereas the other one is closing normally. The eye also look a bit wider than the other one now. What could be the problem doctor,can it be fixed 100% ? I'm worried about this.

Hi, Your friend is involved in an accedent, week ago, his left eye is red on the side, and on blinking it is folding, eye look wider.
It appears to be scratch and hematoma under the sclera of the eye. I usually prescribe to my such patient antibiotics, protiolytics, and antiinflamatories and local application of antibiotic eye drops, and refer to an opthalmologist .
I advise you to consult a eye specialist. thank you.
