Should I Be Concerned For Red Bruising On Skin Of Eye?

I fell yesterday and somehow managed to hit my head on the ground on my eyebrow. I was checked over and not apparently concussed. I've had a load of stitches. But now concerned about a red bruising that's developing in the corner of my eye on the skin, not eyeball.

Red bruising over skin you mean lid. It will heal with treatment of injury.If it is palpebral cojuctiva then it is sub cojuctival haemorhage ,which will subside slowly. Get your vision checked.
