Child black eye from school accident

My daughter had an accident during PE with another child 1.5 weeks ago at school. She got kneed in the eye and the next day she developed a pretty nasty black eye.

Didn’t get a call from school but the let my mother in law know at pick up.

Anyway it’s pretty much healed now and no side effects. However I’m thinking I should have got it checked out at the time/worried about retinal bleeds.

Would I know if something more serious behind the eye or to her head? she’s 6 years old.

I don't think I would first jump to seeing someone but would monitor how bad the pain was and keep an eye on any changes to their eye sight.
