Swelling of eye lid
While playing badminton I got hit by the shuttle cork on my right eye. There is slight swelling in the eye lid and the eye has become right. Applied ice pack on the eyes immediately. The swelling has reduced on the second day. Redness is still there. Pain has reduced too. Just wanted to know if I do need to consult the doctor now. Thank you.

Yes you still need to get examined by a doctor especially for the vision and intra ocular pressure check.  Long term regardless check goes a long way in preventing secondary glaucoma which can occur in case of blunt trauma
