I might have to have surgery on my eye/face?(black eye)?!


Question: I might have to have surgery on my eye/face?(black eye)?
A few days ago, i got a black eye from falling off my bike and hit my face on a rock. It got really swollen, and bruised and all that so i saw my neighbor(who is a nurse) and he looked at it and wanted me to go see a few doctors. so yesterday and today i saw the eye doctor and some other doctor who decided i need surgery to fix it cuz i have a fracture on the bone right around me eye. I cant remember what the surgery is called. i see the doctor again wednesday and then he will probably decide. I've had surgery before so i know sort of how it goes. And i know some of these questions are for the doctor but I had something i needed to do and didnt really have time to ask much. But if u know anything about this help me out. Will i have stitches, if so, where? How swollen would the area(like around my eye be)? I'm guessing my eye would be swollen shut for a while(it is right now) How long? Would my eye be covered up with something maybe? Right now, i've been wearing sunglasses sometimes(not because i'm embarrassed, but the light really hurts my eye. If i have the surgery will the doctors want me to wear sunglasses or the blind sunglasses or nothing? How long would I be in the hospital for? what will go on in the hospital before, during, and after the surgery? And how long would it be for the anesthia to ware off, and how long before i'm feeling myself again, and how long before my eye heals?
