I woke up this morning with a yellow and purple discoloration of my entire left eyelid. I am not in any pain and it does not hurt to touch. I had an itching sensation that lasted a few hours earlier but now it is gone. I haven t been struck in the face so I don t know why this happened
Hello, Welcome to ChatDoctorThanks for posting your query in Chat Doctor. I understand your concerns. This is because of hematoma as a result of collection of blood under the layers of skin of eyelid. Though the commonest cause is injury it can occur spontaneously also in case of diabetes or hypertension.Hence, though requires evaluation is to be done to rule out these systemic causes. For purple color of eyelids you can apply cold compression, and it will resolve no need to worry. Hope you are satisfied with the answer. Thank you
