about a week depending on how sensitive you are.

It'll last a few days, at least.

about a week, I know it sucks! ;o)

3 to 5 days hopefully

about 4-5 days.

Are you sure you didn't get hit in the eye with a PUNCH??

put ice on it for about 10-15 mins every day and it should go away within a week

Depending on whether you are a quick or slow healer, anywhere from 4 to 7 days.

about a week each day will lighten

a month
I know a kid that had a bad one since feburary, and he still has it but it's fading

a week or 2 if its bad

1 how do u get hit with a cell phone? did sum1 thro it? well they usually goaway in 3or 4 days a week at most.

it depends upon how bably the capilaries have been burst. if the bruise is only light purple, i'd say 4-5 days

if its a dark purple and nearly black i'd say 8-9 days

dont cover it up with make up though that can makew it look worse

put a stake on it to draw the blood nice peice of sirloin babygirl

It depends on the severity of the bruise.

It will drain down your face as time progresses, so get used to the idea of having a blue-green green-yellow tint under that eye an the corresponding area of your face as time goes by.

not too long.

to preserve the look, you may have to give yourself a healthy right hander twice a week

A black eye is just the broken vessels under your skin that result in a trauma (accident) or just a fist.

When you consider both, I guess that it all depends on how bad was the blow to it and how fast the vessels will regenerate again.

Anyway, it is not a good thing to have.

3 to 5 days... the fastest way to get rid of it is to keep ice on it 20 minutes on 20 minutes off. good luck..and what happened? was someone showing you their theft security on their phone like that guy on the commercial?

I had one, lasted about a week

it will last sometimes a month..

i saw your other question and i know that your bf hit you. the bruise will last only a week but the emotional scar will last much longer. if you were to report him you know that you could charge him with assult and battery. i sure hope that you do and put the letter x before bf. tell someone. he doesn't care about you if he hurt you!!!sure he says he will never do it again (i pray he doesn't) one a liar always a liar. someone out there cares about you and would never hurt you THAT IS NOT love :( dump the loser who hurt someone who doens't deserve it and find mister right. i am sure that he (mr. right) is searching for you too :)
