Can you get a black eye postmortem from gunshot wound to the head?

It is possible to have bruising around the eyes after death, even from a gunshot wound to the head. Postmortem lividity, or the settling of blood in the body after death, can cause discolouration around the eyes, especially if the head is positioned face down. Additionally, some medical treatments and interventions involving the administration of fluids or medications after death can lead to tissue swelling or fluid leakage, possibly contributing to discolouration in the eye area. However, the specific presence and severity of any discolouration or bruising can vary and may depend on various factors such as the position of the victim, time period postmortem, medical interventions undertaken, existing blood vessels in the tissues, and individual anatomical variation.
