Eyeballs are a different ballgame.
You need to have it checked because the retina can become detached from trauma.
If any meds are going to work, it's got to be eyedrops.

You need a doctor; the last thing you need is us diagnosing and proposing remedies without a magnified look at the damage your eye has sustained.
Ibuprofen does reduce inflammation but I don't know about eyeballs.
If it domestic related call the police also.
