Dear patient you have got blunt trauma to your eye . Redness inside eye is due to echymosis. Apply ice packs frequently every 2 hourly for initial 3 days. Start tab diclofenac plus serratiopeptodase combination twice a day for pain and swelling relief. Pain and swelling will subside within 3 to 4 days. Redness and echymosis may take months to disappear. A visit to expert opthalmologist is required to check your vision. All the best.
