Hello
It seems from the history that you are having subconjunctival hemorrhage following injury to the head.
This is common in injuries to the face above the level of the eye brow.
This is self limiting condition and it takes 3-4 weeks to get cleared completely depending on the amount of blood collected under the conjunctiva.
Use of cold compression will provide symptomatic relief.

Thank you
