Progression of periorbital hematoma over ten days: the blood is gradually absorbed, but the iron-laden pigments in the blood remain in the tissue leaving a discoloration that persists for longer. Despite the name, the<unk>  itself is not affected. Blunt force or trauma to the<unk>  socket results in burst capillaries and subsequent haemorrhaging (hematoma). The fatty tissue along with the<unk>  of muscle around the<unk>  socket allows a potential space for blood accumulation. As this blood decomposes and is resorbed, various pigments are released lending itself to the extreme outward appearance. The appearance (discoloration in purple and blue along with swelling) does not usually indicate a serious injury, and most<unk> s resolve within a week. The tissues around the<unk>  are soft and thus bruise easily when compressed against margins of bone which surround and protect the<unk>  socket. The treatment is the same as that for bruises in other parts of the body – cold compresses during the first twenty-four hours. During the process of healing, and so long as there no breaks in the skin, a<unk>  can be made less conspicuous by using cosmetics designed to obscure discolorations of the skin. In a severe contusion, blowout of the floor of the orbit may occur, leading to double vision. Such an injury may require surgical correction.
