Okay, so I have a character who has sustained an eye injury. Dagger slicing from forehead, over eye (lid closed), down cheek. Pressure with the dagger is not so great that it would slice the eye in two, but rather, put a big cut across it or something.
What I want: the eye must stay. The character can be blind now.
I just have no idea:
1. What kind of pressure that would entail? I don't want too much or too little.
2. Healing time.
3. What might the eye look like after? Milked over? Bloody and weird?
The character will have an eye-patch, but I'm needing to get an idea of what the thing looks like when the eye-patch comes off.
Also, will it change over time? Like, 6 months after the injury VS 6 years.
I've tried googling, but I am getting awful results. Maybe I'm just a bad googler.
