This is a timely bump.
Over the weekend I used a ladder and grabber stick to put Christmas lights in a number of large white spruce trees I have in my yard. Several large clumps of snow and tree debris repeatedly fell in my face (no safety glasses). My right eye ended up with quite a bit of debris in it that resulted in surprisingly little irritation. I was able to remove that fairly easily. Now last night my left eye felt bruised and this morning the eyelid is all puffy, purple, and swollen. It feels like I got a black eye. I rinsed it the best I could in the shower. Is there anything else I should do? I guess it is possible that there is something under the eyelid.
