Hello This is not suggestive of black fungus. Having said that, ENT examination is advised to confirm black fungus status

It can be allergic , but if she is feeling pain in her affected eye , swelling in and around eye , difficulty in eye movement , facial pain , swelling and discomfort then the black fungus should be ruled out . Otherwise it can be allergic .
