Suggest Remedy For Bruises In Eye With Blurred Vision

I am a 31 year old female, 130 lbs in great health. I hit my temple on a door really hard this morning, and now I have bruising under my eye on that side and blurred vision in that eye, not to mention a headache. Should I worry, or just let it run its course and heal, its only been a few hours.
