Sounds like you might have a Anterior Hyphema injury.

Twenty years ago I got poked in the eye with a tree branch that had brushed by the cab of motor grader I was operating. I wear hard contact lenses. The impact shattered the contact lens.

Long story short I was taken to an eye clinic where the Dr. removed the broken lens. My eye looked like a scrambled egg yoke. I was pu in the hospital for 5 days. I was given medicine so I would not sneeze, stuff so I could crap without straining and was only allowed out of bed to go to the bathroom. The Dr did not want the blood clot to break off inside the eye.

My vision was not affected, lucky I guess.

I truly believe the hard contact lens saved my eye.
