NAOMI INJURED EYE DURING BATTLE
“We took a look at her in the training room after she came back from her match,” said WWE physician Dr. Chris Amann. “She appears to have a bruised orbital bone or a bruised eye socket, as well as a scratch on her cornea.”
The good news is, the initial tests both cleared Naomi of a possible concussion and suggested a quick recovery. “We did a full eye examination and a head examination as well as a neurological examination; no signs of concussion,” said Dr. Amann. “We’re going to have her use ice and Tylenol and check her out again tomorrow."
UPDATE: WWE.com has received the latest on Naomi's condition, and the "Total Divas" star is now expected to miss some in-ring time.
"After Naomi went home she had increasing swelling and pain, which prompted a visit to a local doctor there, who performed a CAT scan," Dr. Chris Amann told WWE.com. "The CAT scan result showed a small, minimally displaced fracture of the eye socket or orbit on the medial wall, which is the inside part of the socket next to the nose. She is being followed closely and the swelling is being controlled at this point with oral medication."
As for her recovery, WWE medical staff are plan to monitor the injury's progression.
"She does have a follow-up later this week to see if surgery will be necessary or whether we can continue to let this heal on its own," said Dr. Amann. "As of right now, she’s off and we should have some updated information in terms of a return to the ring timetable within the next 3-4 days.
